Sunnys Award Winning Curry Style Dog Recipes

SUNNY'S EASY CHICKEN PARM DOG

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Put the hot dogs on the direct heat of the grill and cook until desired doneness.
• In a pan on medium heat, add the olive oil, breadcrumbs, a pinch of salt and few grinds of pepper. Toast, stirring, until the breadcrumbs soak up the oil and become golden, a few minutes. Toss in the parsley and basil off heat.
• Open each bun and stuff with equal amounts of mozzarella. Wrap in aluminum foil and place over the indirect heat of the grill (or in a warm oven, about 300 degrees F). Remove when a check inside reveals melted mozzarella. Spray the tops of each lightly with butter spray, sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the top of the buns, return to the grill or oven and cook until the tops are a bit crusty and stiff, a few more minutes.
• Put the hot dogs over the melted mozzarella in the buns. Top with pizza sauce and grated Parmesan.

BRANDIED CURRY CHICKEN WITH GRAPES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and sear on both sides until golden. Remove from pan. In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, if needed, and saute shallots, garlic and curry. Deglaze with brandy, scraping up brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add chicken back to pan and stir in heavy cream. Cover and bring to a simmer for 15 minutes. Add the grapes and noodles, return to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken juices run clear when poked with a fork. Stir in mustard and dill. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

SUNNY'S BULGOGI DOG

Steps:

• For the glaze: In a small bowl, mix the gochujang, honey, a few grinds of black pepper and a pinch of salt, adding a splash of water if needed to loosen to a glaze consistency.
• For the marinated veggies: In a bowl, toss together the rice wine vinegar, sesame seeds, chile flakes, scallions and carrots. Rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
• For the hot dogs and onions: In a grill pan on medium heat (or on the grates of a grill on high heat), add the onions and a drizzle of olive oil. Brush the onions with the glaze and cook, moving them around, until charred and golden, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and give them a rough chop. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Add the hot dogs to the grill pan cut-side down and cook, flipping once, until heated through. On the flip, generously brush the cut side with the glaze. Remove from the grill and let rest with the onions under the foil.
• Dry toast the buns on each side. Add the onions to the buns first, then the hot dogs and some of the marinated vegetables.

SUNNY'S EASY BLT HOT DOG

Steps:

• In a cold pan, add the bacon strips. Turn the heat to medium high and cook, flipping once, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with the steak seasoning and sugar. When cool enough to handle, chop the bacon, but not to bits!
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium high. Cook the hot dogs on all sides until slightly charred, about 6 minutes.
• Line the insides of each bun with slices of tomato (they should stick out slightly) and rest the hot dogs on top. Add the mayonnaise and use it to "glue" the lettuce and bacon on top.

SUNNY'S JALAPEñO POPPER HOT DOGS

Steps:

• For the spread: Put about 2 inches of oil in a small saucepan and line a plate with paper towels.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat until swirls appear on the surface of the oil, about 5 minutes, then add the jalapeños. Fry until they begin to wrinkle and the thin outer skin begins to separate, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on the lined plate. Let cool slightly, then chop finely, removing seeds if you'd like less heat. Fold together the jalapeños, cream cheese and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.
• For the hot dogs: Cook the hot dogs in the same frying oil until they plump and begin to blister, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on the lined plate. Slather the insides of the warm hot dog buns with the cream cheese mixture, then add a hot dog to each and top with a drizzle of the nacho cheese sauce and a sprinkle of the chopped fried jalapeños.

SUNNY'S EASY BK CURRYWURST

Steps:

• For the curry ketchup sauce: In a medium pot on medium heat, add the ketchup, honey, curry powder, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook while stirring until the curry powder melts into the ketchup and the red color deepens, about 5 minutes.
• For the wurst and onions. In a large pot on medium-low heat, add the wurst in 1 layer, then pour the stock over the top. Cover, bring just to a simmer and gently simmer until the wurst is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to high heat. Remove the wurst from the pot, place on the grill, drizzle with a little olive oil and cook until charred on both sides and slightly bursting, 8 to 12 minutes total. Remove to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Toss the onion slices with olive oil, add to the grill and cook until charred on only one side, about 5 minutes. Remove the onions to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil for 10 minutes. Cut each wurst link into 1/2-inch discs and chop the onion slices.
• Open the rolls by splitting them across the top, then scoop the wurst and onions into the rolls. Sprinkle with curry powder and drizzle with the curry ketchup sauce.
