Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Turkey Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Shape the Jumbo Dogs
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a thick, elongated sausage to fit the hot dog buns. Make sure they are evenly shaped for consistent cooking.

Cook the Jumbo Dogs
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shaped turkey dogs and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked and have a golden brown color. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).

Prepare the Buns
While the turkey dogs are cooking, lightly toast the hot dog buns in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown. This will enhance their texture and flavor.

Assemble the Jumbo Turkey Dogs
Once the turkey dogs are cooked and the buns are toasted, place each turkey dog into a bun. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and drizzle with Dijon mustard. Sprinkle chopped fresh chives on top for added flavor and garnish.
