Instructions

Cook the Hot Dogs

Grill, pan-fry, or microwave the hot dogs according to your preference. For a skillet, cook over medium heat turning occasionally for 4 to 5 minutes until browned on all sides.

2

Heat the Chili

While hot dogs cook, pour canned chili into a small saucepan over medium heat and warm for 3 to 4 minutes stirring occasionally until heated through.

3

Assemble and Serve

Place each hot dog in a bun and spoon warm chili generously over the top. Cover with shredded cheddar cheese and diced onion. Serve immediately while hot.
