Ingredients
- 4 hot dogs
- 8 bacon strips
- 400 g frozen french fries
- 2 cups lettuce
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- ½ red onion
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the 400g frozen french fries in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden and crispy, shaking the pan halfway through.

While fries bake, wrap each of the 4 hot dogs with 2 bacon strips, stretching the bacon slightly and tucking the ends under the hot dog to secure.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the wrapped hot dogs in the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until bacon is browned and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the salad: in a large bowl, combine the 2 cups lettuce, 8 halved cherry tomatoes, and 0.5 thinly sliced red onion. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 0.5 tsp salt; toss to coat.

Once hot dogs are cooked, let them rest for 2 minutes. Serve the bacon-wrapped hot dogs alongside the crispy fries and fresh salad. Add ketchup, mustard, or your favorite condiments if desired.

For extra flavor, you can brush the hot dogs with a little barbecue sauce or honey before wrapping with bacon, or sprinkle the fries with paprika or garlic powder before baking.
