Chef Guy Fieris Queso Dip Recipe 425

CHEF GUY FIERI'S QUESO DIP RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Remove casings from chorizo. (If using the harder cured chorizo, slice into chunks and chop in food processor.) Cook chorizo in a large pan with olive oil over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Add flour to the pan and stir to make a roux. Gradually add milk while stirring with a whisk to avoid lumps. Add cumin, nutmeg, salt and pepper then simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add cheese and stir until fully melted. Cover and keep warm. Set cast iron griddle pan over high heat. Brush onions and peppers with a little oil and grill 2-3 minutes so they are nicely charred. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop vegetables. Fold into the cheese mixture along with green onions and stir. Garnish with paprika and more green onions. Serve with crackers.

QUESO FUNDIDO WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Oil a 3 or 4 cup ovenproof baking dish.
• In a dry medium skillet, saute the chorizo over medium-high heat until almost crisp. Remove the chorizo to a plate. Add the onions and garlic to the pan juices and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Return the chorizo to the skillet with the onions and garlic and stir to combine.
• Put half of the cheese in the baking dish and sprinkle with half of the chorizo mixture. Repeat with the remaining cheese and chorizo mixture. Bake until the cheese is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Serve with flour tortillas for soft tacos.

CORN CON QUESO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the butter, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, cilantro, salt and pepper, to taste.
• Rub corn with the butter mixture. Wrap in foil and put in the oven. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes. Unwrap from foil, top with queso fresco and a squeeze of lime. Serve immediately.

QUESO FUNDIDO WITH ROASTED POBLANO VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put the poblanos on a baking sheet and roast, turning, until browned, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover and let sit 5 minutes. Peel the poblanos with your fingers, then halve, seed and roughly chop.
• Combine the roasted poblanos, vinegar, garlic, honey, canola oil and 2 tablespoons water in a blender; puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Make the queso fundido: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add the flour and cook, whisking, 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the monterey jack. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Turn on the broiler.
• Scrape the cheese mixture into an 8-inch cast-iron pan and arrange the goat cheese rounds on top. Broil until golden brown in spots. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and sprinkle with the cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips.

QUESO FUNDIDO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cook the chorizo in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon as it renders, about 5 minutes. Add the onion, serrano and garlic and continue cooking until the chorizo is crisp and the onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the mixture from the skillet and transfer to a bowl. Toss the cheeses with the flour in a separate bowl.
• Add the beer to the skillet, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Whisking constantly, add the cheese mixture a little bit at a time, whisking until smooth and well blended. Stir in the beans, chiles and chorizo mixture.
• Place the skillet in the oven and cook until the queso is hot and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Garnish with scallions and tomato and serve with tortilla chips.
