Skillet Corn Dog Casserole image

Cast iron skillets are great for browning hot dogs. Cast iron skillets make great cornbread. And who doesn't need to sneak extra vegetables into a recipe that sounds like Fair food? This easy, one-pot meal is quick and easy to make. It's especially good next to a pile of red-cabbage slaw, making a colorful supper.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 Tbsp canola or other light oil
1 stalk(s) celery, diced fine
1/2 medium red or green bell pepper, diced fine
3/4 c frozen corn niblets, thawed
4 to 6 medium hot dogs
3 oz cheddar cheese, 1/4" dice
CORN BREAD BATTER - DRY INGREDIENTS
1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c corn meal
2 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp sage, rubbed or ground (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp buttermilk powder (optional)
1/8 tsp baking soda (only if using buttermilk powder)
CORN BREAD BATTER - WET INGREDIENTS
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 c milk, plus 2 tablespoons, if needed
2 Tbsp butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  • 2. Heat a 10" cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil. When it shimmers, add the diced celery and pepper and saute until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • 3. While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the batter. Combine the dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/2 cup milk and the egg in a small bowl. Slowly whisk the melted butter into the milk and egg. Pour the wet ingredients onto the dry ingredients. Stir briefly, until no ingredients remain dry. The resulting batter will be lumpy and should resemble a thick pancake batter. If the batter is thick like a muffin batter, add the remaining milk and stir briefly. Set the batter aside.
  • 4. Remove the vegetables from the skillet with a slotted spoon, leaving as much oil as possible in the skillet. Turn the heat up to medium-high and brown the hot dogs on all sides to add a roasted flavor.
  • 5. Remove the skillet from the heat. Brush the oil under the hot dogs on the walls of the skillet to prevent sticking. Evenly space the hot dogs. Add the celery, peppers and corn, forming an even layer around the hot dogs.
  • 6. Pour the batter over the hot dogs and vegetables. Spread the dough to reach the walls of the skillet. Distribute the diced cheese over the batter.
  • 7. Place the skillet in the center of the hot oven and bake 20 minutes until the cheese is well melted and the top is golden.
  • 8. Allow to rest 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

This recipe is a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables. I added some chopped carrots and celery to the cornbread batter and they didn't even notice.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices to the cornbread batter.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover hot dogs. I also added some leftover mashed potatoes to the casserole and it turned out great.

This dish was a little too cheesy for my taste, but my kids loved it. I would recommend using less cheese if you don't like your food too cheesy.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The cornbread topping was crispy and flavorful, and the hot dogs and cheese were perfectly cooked.

This casserole was easy to make and very satisfying. I served it with a side of coleslaw and it was a perfect meal.

I would give this recipe 5 stars if the cornbread topping wasn't so dry. Other than that, it was a great dish.

This casserole was a huge disappointment. The cornbread topping was dense and gummy, and the hot dogs were overcooked. I won't be making this again.

The cornbread topping was a little dry for my taste, but the rest of the casserole was delicious. I would recommend using a little more butter or oil in the cornbread batter.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used a variety of hot dogs, including beef, pork, and turkey, and they all worked well. I also added some chopped bell peppers and onions to the cornbread topping for extra flavor.
