Remove the chilies and with the help of a kitchen towel rub the skins off. The chilies should be firm. Cut them in 1/2-inch strips discarding all the seeds and the ribs. Do not rinse them. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chilies and the onions at the same time. Stir often. When everything is soft add all the sour cream and the chicken bouillon granules to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cheese: A good queso dip starts with the right cheese. Use a combination of cheeses that melt well together, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso Oaxaca. Avoid using cheeses that are too hard or crumbly, as they will not melt smoothly.
  • Shred the cheese yourself: Pre-shredded cheese contains cellulose, which can make your queso dip grainy. Shredding the cheese yourself will give you a smoother dip.
  • Use a slow cooker: A slow cooker is a great way to make queso dip. Simply add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or until the cheese is melted and smooth.
  • Add flavorings: Once the cheese is melted, you can add flavorings to your liking. Common flavorings include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add diced tomatoes, green chiles, or cooked ground beef.
  • Serve with your favorite dippers: Queso dip is traditionally served with tortilla chips, but you can also serve it with vegetables, crackers, or bread.
