The best part of a picnic is when someone drags out the old Hibachi or other portable grill and grills up, well, anything. But of all things that can be grilled, hot dogs are surely some of the best. These are typical dogs that you’d find at just about any picnic, with a little Asian coleslaw on top.
Ingredients:
6 hot dogs
6 hot dog buns
1/2 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
1 orange pepper, thinly sliced
2 green onions, thinly sliced
4 radishes, julienned
1/4 cup olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/2 tablespoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon chili pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds
Directions:
1.) In a large bowl combine the olive oil, lemon juice, rice vinegar, mustard powder, garlic powder, onion powder, fresh ginger, soy sauce, honey, and chili pepper flakes. Whisk to thoroughly combine all ingredients together.
2.) To the dressing add the red cabbage, orange pepper, green onions, and radishes. Stir to mix the vegetables with the dressing entirely, and set aside for 20 minutes.
3.) Meanwhile, preheat the grill to medium heat. When hot, add the hot dogs and cook for a few minutes before turning and cooking for another few minutes on the other side. Remove from grill and place one into each hot dog bun. Top with Asian slaw.
4.) Serve and enjoy!
