Hot Dog with Onions and Pickles

Step 1

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

While the onion cooks, grill or pan-fry the 4 hot dogs over medium heat until heated through and lightly charred, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Toast the 4 hot dog buns in the same skillet or on the grill until lightly golden, about 1 minute per side.

Step 4

Place each hot dog in a bun. Top with the caramelized onions, 1 slice of dill pickle per hot dog, and 2 tbsp of cheddar cheese per hot dog.

Step 5

In a small nonstick skillet, fry the 4 eggs sunny-side up over medium heat until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes.

Step 6

Place one fried egg on top of each hot dog. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp of bacon bits per hot dog and serve immediately.

Step 7

Optional: add a drizzle of ketchup or mustard if you like.
