One-Pan Hatch Chili-Cheese Dip Recipe
Description
The preparation begins by sautéing onions and jalapenos until softened, then adding garlic briefly to release aroma. Ground beef is browned in the same pan, followed by adding chopped Hatch chiles and canned tomatoes to build flavor. Red chili powder, basil, cumin, salt, and pepper season the mixture. After cooking through, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses are sprinkled on top and melted in the oven.
The final dip combines a tender, spiced beef mixture with melted cheese, resulting in a creamy and flavorful texture with subtle heat from the Hatch chilies and jalapenos. The contrast between warm cheese and juicy beef provides a satisfying bite.
Served hot garnished with fresh herbs and accompanied by tortilla chips, this dip makes a sharing appetizer suited for gatherings.
