Queso Fundido Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chorizo

    In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and chorizo. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chorizo is browned and cooked through.

  2. 2

    Melt the Cheese

    Reduce the heat to low and add the Oaxaca cheese and Monterey Jack cheese to the skillet with the chorizo. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and creamy.

  3. 3

    Add Jalapeño (Optional)

    If using jalapeño, finely chop and stir it into the cheese mixture for added spice.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the melted cheese mixture to a serving dish, sprinkle with chopped cilantro, and serve immediately with warm tortillas for dipping.
