Cheese and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation

1

Cook the Chorizo

In a skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Use a spatula to break it up as it cooks.

2

Melt the Cheese

Reduce the heat to low and add the Chihuahua cheese to the skillet with the chorizo. Stir frequently until the cheese is completely melted and creamy, about 3-5 minutes.

3

Prepare Tortillas

While the cheese is melting, heat the tortillas in a separate skillet or on a grill until warm and pliable, about 1-2 minutes per side.

4

Serve the Queso Fundido

Once the cheese is melted, remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Top with pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, and jalapeños if desired. Serve hot with warm tortillas on the side.
