Chori Queso Queso Con Chorizo Recipes

CHORIQUESO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat the corn oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Crumble in the chorizo sausage; cook and stir until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan, and set aside. Place slices of cheese in a single layer to cover the bottom of the pan. It is okay if they overlap a little bit. When cheese melts, quickly pour into a nice casserole dish, or oven-proof bowl. Sprinkle the chorizo on top.
• Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is fully melted. Remove from the oven, stick a fork in it and load your tortilla.

CHORIZO CON QUESO

Steps:

• Warm the oil in a heavy saucepan over med heat.
• Add the sausage and cook for 2 minutes, or until the fat begins to melt.
• Add the onion and garlic.
• Cook until the chorizo is well browned.
• Drain off the grease and add the tomato, chile, and stock.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer and slowly add the cheese, blending with a spoon.
• As each batch of cheese melts, add more, cooking over very low heat.
• When the cheese has melted and the mixture comes together, it is ready to serve.
• Keep warm while serving.
• Note 1- serve with tortillas or fresh tortilla chips.
• Note 2- you COULD use canned pre-roasted poblanos, but roasting one yourself is really simple.
• Take a poblano chili, rub with a bit of corn oil, put under the broiler and let it cook until the skin starts to char.
• Turn it over and continue this way until the skin is charred all over.
• Take it out (with tongs!) and put in a plastic zip-lock bag and let it sit until cool.
• Remove the chile and the skin will peel right off, then tear it open and remove the seeds and stems.
• It's that simple.
• Just like roasting a bell pepper.

Steps:

• Cook the chorizo, stirring, in a medium skillet or a flameproof gratin dish over medium-high heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and pour off any excess rendered fat, reserving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. If there is less than 1 tablespoon, add enough olive oil to make 1 tablespoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until the flour is golden, 1 minute. Pour in the beer and bring to a boil. Stir in the chopped jalapenos and pickling juice and cook 2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, whisking, and bring to a gentle boil until thickened, about 1 minute. Add the cheeses and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cheese fully melts, about 3 minutes. Stir in the reserved chorizo. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the cilantro and serve warm with dippers.
