Chili Dog

Welcome back! 
Next up in our line of homemade fast food is a chili dog! This is mainly a recipe for the chili part because the hot dog is, well, just a normal hot dog. This chili can be used for a variety of other things, such as in wraps or topped on fries. I honestly think that this recipe is rather true to the original thing, like something you would get at Sonic.

Chili Dog


Ingredients:

Chili:
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/4 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup broth or water
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Assembly:
  • Hot dogs
  • Hot dog buns
  • Other toppings including, but not limited to:
    • Red onion, diced
    • Cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions:

  1. Saute the onions until soft. Then, add the garlic.
  2. Add in the ground beef and stir until the color changes.
  3. Throw in the spices. Now, lower the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. Once ready, assemble the hot dog and top with chili and whatever other toppings you like.
And there you go! This is really a great recipe for cookouts too. As you can see, we paired it with fresh corn on a cob just like a real outdoor cookout, though just in our house! Now, you too can bring a barbecue to your own house, especially with our other recipe for homemade burgers.

Filipino Chicken Adobo

Welcome back!  Today, we have a traditional Filipino dish: Chicken Adobo! Adobo is a very classic Filipino flavor involving vinegar, peppercorns, and bay leaves. It's used for many different types of meat; pork is another very common choice. The dish should not be confused with a Spanish variety of adobo, which has a similar concept but different ingredients - there's a heavier emphasis on spices like paprika and oregano. Filipino Chicken Adobo Ingredients: 2 pounds chicken drumsticks 1/2 cup rice vinegar 1/3 cup soy sauce 6 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns 3 bay leaves 2 tablespoon sugar Directions: Prepare the marinade by adding in all the ingredients except for the chicken. Mix this together. Put the chicken in and let it marinade for a few hours, preferably overnight so the flavor really soaks in. Take the chicken out. Keep the marinade! In an oiled pan, sear the chicken for 2 minutes on each side (imagine that the drumsticks have two sides). Remov...
