Spice up your lunch or dinner with robust Spanish flavors. In place of standard hot dogs, grill up chicken chorizo sausages, and top them with a classic sauce made from cilantro, sherry vinegar, and spices. If you can’t find chicken chorizo, you can substitute another type of chicken sausage—chipotle sausages or Italian sausages would be delicious. Be sure to blot the red peppers with a paper towel to dry them off so that they don’t sog out the buns.

Ingredients

Cilantro

1 cup(s), chopped, leaves and stems

Ground cumin

½ tsp

Kosher salt

¼ tsp

Paprika

¼ tsp, smoked

Garlic

1 small clove(s), chopped

Olive oil

1 Tbsp

Sherry vinegar

1 Tbsp, or red wine vinegar

4 link(s), 3 oz each

Reduced calorie hot dog bun

4 item(s)

Roasted red peppers (packed in water)

½ cup(s), sliced and drained on paper towels

Instructions

  1. In a small food processor or blender, place cilantro, cumin, salt, paprika, and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped. Add oil, vinegar, and water; process until smooth (add additional water as needed, 1 tsp at a time).
