Bacon-Wrapped Hot Dogs

Servings4

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil

1/2 Onion, sliced

1 Red Bell Pepper, seeded and sliced

1 Green Bell Pepper, seeded and sliced

Salt

Freshly Ground Black Pepper

4 Hot Dogs, split lengthwise so they won't burst when cooked

4 Slices Bacon

4 Soft Hot Dog Buns

Mayonnaise

Ketchup

Mustard

Tapatio Hot Sauce, to taste

Directions

Heat the oil in a pan or on a griddle over medium heat, add the onion and peppers, and sauté with a touch of salt and pepper until they're slightly caramelized, about 4 minutes. Remove.
Wrap each hot dog tightly in a strip of bacon. In a pan over medium heat, slowly cook your hot dogs, moving them continuously to cook them evenly, until the bacon is nice and brown but still soft, about 4 minutes. Remove.
Toast the inside of the buns in a bit of that bacon fat.
Place a hot dog in each bun and slather it with mayonnaise, then top with the peppers and onions. Squeeze on the ketchup and mustard to taste, then a splash of the Tapatio.
