Ingredients

1 1/8 lb (500 g) Mexican White Melting Cheese (like Oaxacan or Chihuahua cheese)
7.05 oz (200 g) House-Made Chorizo
2 tbs olive oil
2 tbs Fresh cilantro, chopped
1 unit Jalapeño, diced (optional)
7.05 oz (200 g) Tortilla Chips

Method

Directions

1
Prepare the Chorizo
In a skillet over medium heat, add the house-made chorizo. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally.
2
Melt the Cheese
In a separate pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Mexican white melting cheese and allow it to melt slowly. Stir frequently to ensure even melting.
3
Combine Chorizo and Cheese
Once the cheese is melted, fold in the cooked chorizo. If using jalapeño, add it at this stage for extra heat.
4
Garnish
Once combined, sprinkle the chopped cilantro on top.
5
Serve
Transfer the queso flameado to a serving dish and serve immediately with tortilla chips for dipping.
