Best Grilled Hot Dog Quesadilla With Mango Pico De Gallo Recipes

QUESADILLA HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the hot dogs on a baking sheet and bake until heated through and beginning to brown on the bottom, about 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.
• Meanwhile, place 4 tortillas on a work surface. Top each tortilla with 1/3 cup shredded cheese and top with another tortilla. When the hot dogs have cooked 5 minutes and are ready to be flipped, place the quesadillas on the other half of the baking sheet. Continue to bake until the hot dogs are done and the cheese is melted.
• Meanwhile, whisk the sour cream, lime zest and lime juice together in a small bowl. Whisk in salt to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl or spoon the mixture into a squeeze bottle for a fun presentation.
• Remove the quesadillas and hot dogs from the oven. Spread 2 tablespoons of guacamole on each quesadilla. Top with a hot dog, followed by a squeeze of lime sour cream and some pico de gallo. Serve immediately.

CHERRY WOOD-SMOKED CHICKEN BREAST QUESADILLAS WITH PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, chili powder, and garlic salt in a bowl. Mix together and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat a charcoal grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Spread the soaked cherry wood chips evenly on top of the lit charcoal. Place chicken on grill, cover, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove chicken from grill and allow chicken to cool until safe to handle. Cut each chicken breast into small cubes.
• Preheat an electric griddle to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place one tortilla on the griddle to warm and quickly flip it. Spread enough pepper Jack cheese to lightly cover the entire tortilla and let it melt, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Spread 3 tablespoons of pico de gallo on one half of the tortilla and top with 1/6 of the diced chicken. Fold cheese side of the tortilla on top of the pico de gallo-chicken mixture, slice into 3 wedges, and serve. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

COWBOY CHIPOTLE MANGO QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium.
• Arrange the peppers on the hot grill, turning them when the skin is charred and blistered, and all sides have been roasted. Remove the peppers to a bowl and set aside to cool. Scrape the flaking skins from the chiles and dice. Grill the green onions in the same way until lightly charred and wilted. Remove them from the grill to a cutting board and finely chop. Add the chiles, onion and the shredded cheeses to a medium bowl and mix well. Put 1 tortilla on top of well seasoned comal and spread it with some of the cheese mixture. Top with some Chipotle Pico de Gallo and cover with a second tortilla. After about 2 minutes carefully flip and toast the other side, about 2 to 3 minutes. The tortillas should be golden brown and the cheese should be thoroughly melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Cut the quesadillas into quarters for single servings or into eighths for appetizers.
• Combine all the ingredients in a glass bowl and mix well. It is best to let this stand for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry. Drain the salsa of excess liquid and refrigerate until ready to use.

PICO DE GALLO CHICKEN QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, salt, and pepper. Set pico de gallo aside.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add chicken and saute until cooked through and juices run clear. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
• Put the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the hot skillet and saute the sliced onion and green pepper until tender. Stir in the minced garlic and saute until the aroma is strong. Mix in half of the pico de gallo and chicken breast meat. Set aside; keep warm.
• In a heavy skillet, heat one flour tortilla. Spread 1/4 cup shredded cheese on the tortilla and top with 1/2 the chicken mixture. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup cheese over the chicken and top with another tortilla. When bottom tortilla is lightly brown and cheese has started to melt, flip quesadilla and cook on the opposite side. Remove quesadilla from skillet and cut into quarters. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve quesadillas with sour cream and remaining pico de gallo.

HOT DOGS WITH PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor charcoal grill or a gas grill to medium heat. You should be able to hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 7 to 9 seconds before it becomes too hot. Or heat a grill pan on the stovetop over medium.
• Make the pico de gallo by combining the tomatoes, onion, jalapeños, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and mix well. Taste and add more lime juice and salt, if desired.
• Butterfly the hot dogs: Slice them in half lengthwise without cutting all the way through the skin, then open them so they sit flat. Place them on the grill, cut-side down, and cook until grill marks appear, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the hot dogs and cook skin-side down until the skin deepens in color, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, open the hot dog buns and spread the mayonnaise on the cut sides, if you like. Grill, cut-side down, until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip and grill until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
• Place the grilled hot dogs in the toasted buns, cut-side up, then pile the pico de gallo into the butterflied opening. Serve immediately, with any remaining pico de gallo on the side.
