Beery Chorizo Queso Fundido Recipes

BEERY CHORIZO QUESO FUNDIDO

Steps:

• Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter, the onion, jalapeno and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and begin to caramelize, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up with the side of a spoon, until well browned, about 5 minutes. Add to the cooked vegetables in the skillet using a slotted spoon. Set aside.
• Wipe out the saucepan the chorizo cooked in and return it to medium heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter has stopped foaming, stir in the flour, chili powder, and cumin and stir until the flour is absorbed. Whisk in the beer and milk. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese, stirring until completely melted.
• Transfer the cheese deep to a warmed serving dish, fondue pot or a small slow cooker set to warm or low. Stir the chopped cilantro leaves into the chorizo-onion mixture and dollop it on top of the melted cheese. Garnish with more cilantro leaves. Serve with tortilla chips.

QUESO FUNDIDO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a 9-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, crumbling it as you go, until browned and cooked through.
• Remove the chorizo from the skillet and drain it on paper towels (chorizo is very greasy!). Pour off any excess fat from the skillet.
• Without cleaning the skillet, add the onion and bell peppers.
• Cook the veggies over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until they brown and soften, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the tequila, if using. Turn the heat back on to medium-high and cook until the vegetables are golden brown and the liquor has reduced, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set them aside. Turn off the heat.
• Mix the cheeses together, then cover the bottom of a medium ovenproof skillet with one-third of the cheese mixture . . .
• Add one-third of the vegetables . . .
• And one-third of the chorizo.
• Continue with two more layers, ending with chorizo. Sprinkle the top with chili powder.
• Bake until the cheese is totally melted, hot, and slightly bubbling around the edges, 4 to 5 minutes. Watch it constantly, as you don't want the cheese to get overly melted and hard. But you want it to be sizzling!
• Top with the tomatoes, a sprinkle of kosher salt, and the cilantro.
• Serve immediately with tortilla chips . . .
• Or carrot sticks and cauliflower florets if you want to avoid chips!

• Meanwhile, tear the cheese by hand into a small baking dish. Season the cheese with salt, if needed. Transfer to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top with the chorizo.
• Serve the queso fundido with the warmed tortillas.
• Enjoy!

QUESO FUNDIDO WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium. Working in batches, add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer chorizo to a serving dish.
• Add onion and chiles to skillet; season with salt. Raise heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tequila, bring to a boil, and cook until tequila is mostly evaporated, about 30 seconds.
• Reduce heat to low, gradually stir in cheese, and cook, stirring constantly, just until melted, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a fondue pot and serve immediately, with chorizo and chips.
