Italian Hotdogs with Basil Aioli

‍

We can't let the Summer season, and its weekends meant for grilling, go just yet. From garden-fresh basil to the crisp Chicago-style Giardiniera Relish and Gilbret's Caprese Chicken Sausages... one bite of our Italian Hotdogs with a Basil Aioli, and you'll be transported to the Italian coast!

How is Gilbert's different from other chicken sausages?

Their Caprese Chicken Sausages are:

• All Natural
• No Nitrates or Nitrites
• Antibiotic Free Chickne
• Pork Free
• Gluten Free
• And for our meal prep fanatics and/or singles, they're individually wrapped! 🙌🏼 🙌�

So, I'm all about those quick lunches and dinners that still taste good and are nutrient-dense without all the chaos... anyone else?

With that said, fully cooked anything is my go-to when I'm not in the kitchen creating new recipes.

Which is why I love heating up Gilbert's fully cooked chicken sausages to add to leftover pasta dishes, rice and mango salsa, or simply heat up to toss with sautéed vegetables like a taco bowl... but make it Italian!

‍

How to cook with the caprese chicken sausages?

Besides our delicious Italian hotdogs ;) I recommend letting them make a debut to your homemade pizza nights, on top of pasta tossed in a basil pesto, or sliced to serve with tiny mozzarella balls and crisp tomatoes with a drizzle of traditional balsamic vinegar. One of my favorite things about fully cooked chicken sausages is that they make quick, nutrient-dense lunches/dinners... like a one-pot pasta alfredo!

‍

What is the difference between Italian-style and Chicago-style relish?

Okay, so here me out... I did go with the Chicago-style relish on this hotdog even though we are trying to create an Italian-inspired summer grill-out for a reason. LOL

One of the biggest differences is the brine used to marinate and the size the vegetables are chopped too. Typically, the traditional Italian giardiniera is preserved through pickling with no oil, and is chopped in large bite-sized pieces to be more of an appetizer. That's why I opted for a Chicago-style, so that we could create a relish that wouldn't overpower the basil aioli and cypress chicken sausages that are already packed with flavor! :)
