FISH HOT DOG RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Heat a 4-quart soup kettle over medium high heat. Add the olive oil, chopped onion, jalapeno, and garlic, cook for 4 minutes, or until the onion is softened but not changing color. Add the ground beef to the kettle. Cook until lightly browned, turning frequently, breaking up the meat as it cooks, about 5 minutes. Once the meat has browned a little and is cooked through, add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne to the pan, stir to mix well and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute more. Add the tomatoes, kidney beans, beer, and broth to the pot. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook the chili for about 45 minutes. 2. Brush the buns with a small amount of oil and place cut side down into a skillet over medium high heat to give them a quick toast. Arrange the toasted buns on a baking dish and place the onions, ketchup and mustard inside. Then sprinkle them with cheese. Place the dogs inside each bun, top with chili and cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil, then bake for 20 minutes at 375°F. Remove the foil and bake for ten minutes more to brown the cheese. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped cilantro if desired and serve! 3. You can also grill the salmon dogs at medium high heat: assemble them on foil and place back on the grill at indirect heat. Cover the grill and cook until the cheese is melted.

Steps:

• 1. For the scallion cream cheese, combine the cream cheese with the green onion in a standing mixer with a paddle attachment. Be sure not to overmix this! This can be made up to 3 days in advance. 2. For the everything bagel spice, in a jar, combine all of the ingredients. This will keep for 3 months. 3. For the hot dogs, fry, broil, grill, or sauté your salmon dogs. I like them sautéed over medium heat in a nonstick skillet with about a 1/4 inch of oil. Fry until golden brown, turning 3 times to brown on all sides. Place on a paper towel to drain. To assemble, place a few thin slices of cucumber tucked in and running parallel to the dog in the bun. Next, give the dog a schmear of scallion cream cheese. Sprinkle with plenty of minced red onions, capers, and everything bagel spice mix, and serve.
