Arrange your buns in a 9x13 baking dish, then preheat oven to 350F

Cut out rectangles in the centers of each bun, making sure to stay centered, you still want there to be an 'edge' on your boats :)

Push down the bread cut-outs on each press down a bit, this portion of the bun tightly into the bottom of each bun

Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley in a small bowl, then brush the buns and the hollowed insides with the garlic butter mixture, reserving a small amount of your onions.

Bake for 5-7 minutes to toast the buns and get them nice and firm to hold all that filling

Place a slices of cheese inside each bun, then spoon some chili inside, one by one.

Take your hot dogs and cut just the tips off of both ends before placing them inside the boats

Slide the hot dogs in each boat, press down to get them snug in there, then top with more chili.

In the small amount of reserved butter/garlic mixture, add in your diced onions and mix, then evenly top each hot dog with some.

Bake for 15-20 minutes OR until the cheese is golden brown

ENJOY!
