Chili Cheese Dog Grilled Cheese Recipe
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons butter, cut into three even pieces
-
1 hot dog, cut into 4 thin slices lengthwise
-
2 slices hearty white bread, such as Pepperidge Farm or Arnold
-
2 slices American, cheddar, or Jack cheese
-
1/2 cup your favorite chili
-
Kosher salt
Directions
-
Melt one third of butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until foaming subsides. Add hot dog slices and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides. Transfer to a plate. Add both bread slices and cook, swirling occasionally, until pale golden brown on bottom side, about 2 minutes.
-
Transfer bread to a cutting board toasted-side-up. Place cheese slices on top of each slice. Add hot dogs and chili to one side, then close sandwich, with both toasted sides facing inwards.
-
Melt one more piece of butter in the skillet and reduce heat to medium low. Add sandwich and cook, swirling occasionally, until deep, even golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove sandwich using a flexible metal spatula. Add the remaining butter. Return sandwich to skillet cooked-side up. Season with salt. Cook, swirling occasionally, until second side is deep, even golden brown and cheese is thoroughly melted, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
