Queso Fundido Ingredients

Method

Directions for Queso Fundido

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and then add the chorizo. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Broiler

    Set your oven to broil and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Queso Fundido

    In an oven-safe dish, layer the cooked chorizo evenly. Grate the azadero cheese and sprinkle it generously over the chorizo.

  4. 4

    Broil the Cheese

    Place the dish under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top, and serve hot with tortilla chips on the side.
