Steps:
- Chicken
- Smash garlic with a mortar and pestle to make a paste (you should have 1 Tbsp.) and transfer to a medium bowl. Repeat process with ginger (you should also have 1 Tbsp. You can also finely chop and then smash the garlic and ginger with the side of a chef's knife on a cutting board if you don't have a mortar and pestle.) Add yogurt, oil, salt, coriander, cayenne, and cumin to bowl and whisk to combine. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes, or chill up to 4 hours.
- Sumac onions
- Toss red onion, sumac, and salt in a small bowl to coat; set aside.
- Hari chutney and assembly
- Purée lime juice, chile, garlic, cilantro, mint, and ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a food processor or blender until smooth and pourable. If you prefer a thinner chutney, drizzle in 1-3 Tbsp. ice water a tablespoonful at a time, processing until you reach the desired consistency. Taste and season chutney with more salt if needed. Transfer to a small bowl.
- Place sour cream in another small bowl and add 2 Tbsp. chutney; whisk to combine. Season herbed sour cream with salt. Cover both remaining chutney and herbed sour cream separately and chill until ready to serve.
- Prepare a grill for medium heat; oil grate. Thread chicken onto skewers, taking care not to pack it too tightly. Grill, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and charred in spots, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and slide chicken from skewers. (Alternatively, broil skewers on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, turning once, about 5 minutes per side.)
- Spread reserved herbed sour cream on cut sides of buns. Stuff buns with chicken, cucumber slices, and reserved sumac onions and drizzle with chutney. Do ahead: Hari chutney and herbed mayo can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality hot dogs: Opt for all-beef hot dogs with a good meat-to-fat ratio for the best flavor and texture.
- Use fresh vegetables: Crisp, colorful veggies add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the kebabs. Choose bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes that are at their peak ripeness.
- Don't overcrowd the skewers: Make sure there is enough space between the hot dog pieces and vegetables on the skewers so that they cook evenly.
- Grill or pan-fry the kebabs: You can cook them over a grill for a smoky flavor or in a pan with a little oil for a quicker option.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Ketchup, mustard, relish, and sauerkraut are all classic condiments for hot dogs, but you can also try something different like tzatziki sauce or guacamole.
Conclusion:
Hot dog kebabs are a fun and easy way to enjoy your favorite summertime food. They are perfect for picnics, potlucks, or backyard barbecues. With a few simple ingredients and a little creativity, you can create delicious and visually appealing kebabs that everyone will love.
