OVEN BAKED CORN DOGS



Oven Baked Corn Dogs image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 24m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 boxes corn muffin mix, 8 1/2 ounces each (recommended: Jiffy brand)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 tablespoon chili powder, eyeball it in your palm
2 teaspoons cumin, eyeball it
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper sauce (recommended: Tabasco or Frank's Red Hot
2 scallions, finely chopped
8 jumbo pork or beef franks
Sweet Relish Slaw Salad, recipe follows
1 bag reduced fat potato chips (recommended: Cape Cod brand or Terra brand Garlic and Onion flavor Yukon chips)
1 cup sweet pickle relish
1/4 cup cider vinegar, eyeball it
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, eyeball it
2 large cloves garlic, crushed
2 bay leaves, dried
3 whole cloves
1 pound shredded cabbage salad (slaw salad mix with carrots and red cabbage, available in produce department marked "Cole Slaw Mix" in 1 pound packages)
Salt and pepper
4 scallions, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a shallow dish, combine muffin mix with flour, then stir in eggs, milk and melted butter. Season the mix with chili powder, cumin, cayenne and scallions. The batter will be a thick, sticky biscuit dough. Place a hot dog in the bowl of batter and swoosh it around to coat it. Remove coated dog to a nonstick cookie sheet and use your fingers to spread batter on any exposed dog spots. Don't coat it too thick, just shy of 1/2-inch should do the trick. If it's too thick it will just slide off the dog while it's baking, leaving the dog exposed. If that happens don't sweat it, they will still taste great. Repeat until all 8 are coated. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until evenly deep brown all over.
  • Serve the oven baked corn dogs with your favorite hot dog condiments. Serve with Sweet Relish Slaw Salad and with some baked or reduced-fat chips alongside the dogs.
  • In the bottom of a medium, shallow bowl combine relish, vinegar, oil, garlic, bay and cloves. Let stand 5 minutes then fish out the garlic, bay and cloves. Add cabbage salad and toss, let stand 10 to 20 minutes in the refrigerator. Season salad with salt and pepper, toss in the scallions then serve.

EASY FUN-SIZE CORN DOGS



Easy Fun-Size Corn Dogs image

Not only are these corn dogs easy and fun, but because we're doing them in the oven and not deep frying them, they are way, way less messy to make.

CHEESY JALAPEñO CORN DOGS RECIPE BY TASTY



Cheesy Jalapeño Corn Dogs Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: hot dogs, thin slices of cheddar cheese, all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, black pepper, milk, egg, jalapeño, peanut or vegetable oil, mustard, wooden skewer

Provided by Hector Gomez

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 serving

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 hot dogs
4 thin slices of cheddar cheese, room temperature
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
¼ cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 jalapeño, minced
1 qt peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
mustard, for serving
wooden skewer

Steps:

  • Place a hot dog on a slice of cheese, then roll the cheese slice around it. Push a wooden skewer through the cheese-wrapped hot dog, then place seam side down on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Once fully combined, mix in the milk, egg, and jalapeño. Stir until the batter is smooth and without lumps. You may need to add 1 or 2 tablespoon of flour; the batter should be thick enough to cling to the hot dog. Pour it into a tall glass for easier dipping.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Holding the tip of the skewer, take a frozen hot dog and dip it fully into the batter, lifting it out, then rotating it to let excess batter drip off. Using tongs, carefully place the battered dog into the hot oil. Hold it fully submerged for 30-60 seconds until a crust forms, then rotate it so that it fries evenly. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs. Serve with mustard for dipping.
  • Enjoy!

DELICIOUS CORN DOGS



Delicious Corn Dogs image

I use "Schneider's Juicy Jumbo" hot dogs for these, as they are quite large and hold well under the corn meal coating, I am not certain if they sell this brand in the states, if not just make certain that the hot dogs are a larger size. These are really good!

1 pinch white pepper
10 large hot dogs

oil (for frying, not olive oil)

  • Roll/coat the hot dogs well with the cornmeal mixture.
  • Heat oil to 375 degrees F.
  • Deep-fry the corn dogs for about 2 minutes until golden brown (do not over fry as the corn dogs will have a burnt taste, 2 minutes should be enough time).

Time 45m

Yield 6 corn dogs

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 to 2 quarts peanut or corn oil
One 8.5-ounce box corn muffin mix, preferably Jiffy
3 tablespoons milk, or more as needed
1 large egg
2 tablespoons juice from a jar of pickled jalapenos
Kosher salt
6 hot dogs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Your favorite mustard, for dipping

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot halfway with the oil. (You should have a least 4 inches of oil in the pot.) Bring the oil to 350 degrees F over medium to medium-high heat. Line a plate with a paper towel.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the corn muffin mix, milk, egg, pickled jalapeno juice and a pinch of salt and whisk until blended. If the batter is really thick, add a little more milk. (It should be the consistency of thick pancake batter.) Let rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Skewer each hot dog on a chopstick or skewer. Place the flour on a plate or sheet tray. Working in batches of three, dredge the hot dogs in the flour so they are completely coated, making sure to shake off any excess flour. Dip the hot dogs in the batter and turn to completely coat. Gently slide them into the oil and fry, rotating occasionally so they evenly brown, until golden brown all over, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove to the lined plate. Serve with mustard for dipping.

CORN DOGS



Corn Dogs image

When executive editor John Willoughby caught sight of these freshly fried corn dogs, he exclaimed, "Just like the Iowa State Fair!" When he bit into one, he acknowledged that it was even better. Grilling the hot dogs first lends them a deeper, smokier flavor, and the buttermilk-cornmeal coating fries up to a thick, fluffy shell-delicious with mustard or ketchup and a frosty root beer on the side.

Transfer to a plate and cool slightly, then insert a wooden stick into each hot dog. Put 3 tablespoons flour on another plate and roll hot dogs in flour to coat, shaking off excess.
  • Heat 3 inches oil to 350°F in a deep 3-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together cornmeal, remaining 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, cayenne, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add eggs 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in buttermilk.
  • Transfer some of batter to a tall glass, filling it almost to the top.
  • Working in batches of 2 or 3, dip hot dogs, 1 at a time, into glass of batter to coat (add more batter to glass if necessary), then fry, turning occasionally, until batter is cooked through and golden-brown all over, about 3 minutes. Transfer corn dogs to paper towels to drain. Return oil to 350°F and refill glass with batter between batches.

Categories     Meat

Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups pancake mix (Bisquick or your favorite brand)
2 cups yellow cornmeal
2 whole eggs, slightly beaten
6 cups water
8 hot dogs, not frozen (wipe dry with paper towels)
1 (1 lb) package cheddar cheese, cut into 1/2 inch x 3 inch sticks
wooden popsicle sticks (enough to stick everything)
canola oil, for frying
spicy mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine pancake mix and cornmeal. Stir to combine. Add eggs and water, adding more water as needed for the batter to become slightly thick. Start out by adding 4 cups, then work your way up to 6 cups or more.
  • In a deep fryer or large skillet, heat canola oil over medium high heat. Drop in a bit of batter to see if it's ready. The batter should immediately start to sizzle but should not immediately brown/burn. Insert sticks into hot dogs so that they're 2/3 of the way through. Do the same with the cheese sticks.
  • Depending on size of your fryer or large skillet, dip a combination of hot dogs and cheese into the batter and allow excess to drip off for a couple of seconds. Carefully drop into the oil (stick and all) and use tongs or a spoon to make sure it doesn't hit the bottom of the pan and stick.
  • Flip it here and there to ensure even browning, and remove them from the oil when the outside is deep golden brown (2 to 3 minutes). Serve with spicy mustard.
