Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray or grease a 9 x 13 -inch baking dish.
-
Place ground beef, onion, tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, thai chile pepper, chili powder, sugar, and salt in a 7-cup rice cooker and cook until unit switches to "warm." (If making on stovetop, add the ingredients previously mentioned to a large saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until juice is reduced by about 50 percent).
-
Cut hot dogs in half crosswise. Make a slit on the top of each hot dog half and insert the cheese slices. Set aside.
-
Open biscuit rolls. Flatten each biscuit slightly. Place a cheese-stuffed hot dog portion in each biscuit and about a teaspoon of chopped onion. Bring ends of biscuit up around hot dog and seal.
-
Place chili in baking pan. Top with biscuit-wrapped hot dogs, covering the top of the casserole. Sprinkle with one half of the shredded Cheddar cheese.
-
Bake for 30 minutes, or until biscuits are brown and crusty on top. Add remaining half of the shredded cheese. Bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion.

This is a really good recipe. We'll get Wendy's chili fairly often for use when we're making up chili dogs (far better than the canned mixes we've found) and this is a great alternative. I had never thought of making chili dogs as part of a casserole before, and I'm really looking forward to giving this a try. I can easily imagine whipping up one of these for a potluck, since I'm sure it would definitely go over well. Thanks for posting this!
