Ingredients
- 1 poblano pepper
- 1 onion
- 1 chorizo link (optional)
- 1-2 cups cheese (Mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or Oaxaca)
- 1 Jalapeño
- 1 garlic clove
- Chips (or tortillas)
- stock (or water)
- salt
- freshly ground pepper
- oil
Instructions
- Roast the poblano in the oven at 400F for approx. 10-15 minutes
- Saute the chorizo until cooked and set aside. I used 1/3 of a link for this batch.
- Shred 1-2 cups of cheese
- Dice 2-3 tablespoons of both onion and the roasted poblano, reserving the leftover poblano
- Saute the onion in a dollop of oil for a couple minutes
- Add the poblano to the skillet along with generous dashes of salt and pepper
- Add the chorizo and cook until everything is at a uniform temp
- Add the cheese and create a single even layer (using an ovenproof skillet or a baking dish)
- Bake in the oven at 400F for 4-8 minutes
- Meanwhile, add the leftover poblano and garlic to a blender along with a 1/4 sliver of the jalapeno
- Add 2-3 tablespoons of stock (or water) and pulse blend. Salt to taste and set aside.
- Remove dish from oven when cheese is just finishing melting
- Serve immediately with your choice of chips or warmed up tortillas
- Garnish with cilantro and tomatoes (optional)
Notes
- The cheese will continue to cook in the baking dish after being removed from the oven. Keep an eye on it and take it out just before it's finished melting.
- You can omit the chorizo if you want to make a vegetarian version.
