Chorizo Queso Fundido

Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 clove of garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 medium onion, rough chopped into 1 inch pieces
• 5 oz. fresh chorizo
• 8 oz. Oaxaca cheese
• 8 oz. Monterey Jack cheese, grated
• 1 tbsp. flour
• 1 tsp. olive oil
• ½ cup Mexican beer
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Tortilla chips/flour tortilla, for serving

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, toss the cheeses with the flour. Reserve.
2. Add the olive oil to a medium-sized skillet and bring it to the stove over medium heat. Saute the garlic and onion until it begins to soften.
3. Add the chorizo, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it starts to brown. Remove from the skillet and set into a separate bowl.
4. In the same pan, over medium heat, add the beer and let it simmer.
5. When simmering, start to add the cheese, slowly. Whisk constantly and only add the next handful of cheese once the previous one has melted.
6. Once all the cheese has melted and is smooth, stir back in the chorizo/onion mixture.
7. Spoon the salsa over the queso.
