Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 8 ounces tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 8 hot dogs
  • 8 hot dog buns
  • shredded cheddar cheese, for topping
  • minced onion, for topping
  • sliced jalapeno, for topping

Equipment

  • Deep Skillet
  • Air Fryer
  • Fork

Method
 

  1. To Make the Chili Dog Sauce:
  2. In a deep skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and beef broth. Use a fork to break the meat into small pieces, smashing it with the fork to create a finer texture.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet with the beef and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook for 20 minutes or until the chili has thickened slightly.
  4. To Make the Hot Dogs:
  5. Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 2 minutes.
  6. Add the hot dogs to the air fryer basket and cook for 3 minutes. If desired, continue cooking in one-minute increments for a slightly browned exterior.
  7. To lightly toast the buns, place the hot dogs in the buns and return to the air fryer for 1 minute with the air fryer turned off.
  8. Spoon the hot chili sauce over the hot dogs and top with shredded cheese, minced onions, and sliced jalapenos, if desired.
  9. Serve hot.
