CHILE CON QUESO

A homemade queso that's rich, creamy, a little spicy and dangerously good!

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Appetizers

Time 30m

Yield About 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion, diced (about ¾ cup)
1 large jalapeño pepper, finely diced (see note)
4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed through a garlic press
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups half & half
4 ounces (about 1 cup) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
4 ounces (about 1 cup) grated Pepper Jack cheese
¼ teaspoon cumin
Heaping ¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons finely diced tomatoes (use only the flesh, no seeds or juice)
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, optional for more heat
Fresh chopped cilantro, optional for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and jalapeños and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds more. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute.
  • Add the half & half to the pot and whisk until the flour dissolves. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, a few minutes. Turn the heat down to low and gradually add the grated cheese, whisking and letting it melt as you go, until all of the cheese is incorporated. Add the cumin, salt and tomatoes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary; for more heat, add the optional red pepper flakes. (If the dip seems too thick, you can thin it out with a bit more half & half or some milk.) Transfer to bowl and serve hot with tortilla chips. If the dip cools while you're serving it, you can reheat it in the microwave; just stop and stir at short intervals so it reheats evenly.
  • Note: The queso can be made ahead of time and reheated on the stovetop. If it's too thick, add a bit of half and half or milk to thin it out.
  • Note: If you touch the seeds of the jalapeño pepper, just be sure to wash your hands well and avoid touching your eyes.

CHILE CON QUESO CHEESEBURGER



Chile Con Queso Cheeseburger image

If you love Chile con Queso, sink you teeth into this cheesy gooey burger for a real taste explosion! Have a napkin and some tortilla chips ready to catch what your mouth misses because you will want to save every bite! Beer Recommendation: A rich malty, roasty beer that absorbs the heat and provides a great counterpart to chilies and grilled meat is a good choice to pair with these burgers. If you happen to find a Noche Buena, a great dark beer from Mexico, this would be my first choice. Second would be Negra Modelo, a slightly sweet brew with some fruitiness, it's malty for a Mexican beer and goes well with Anaheim and Jalapenos.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 anaheim chilies
2 jalapenos
extra virgin olive oil
1 large garlic clove, unpeeled
1 tablespoon tomatoes, finely diced into very tiny cubes, no seeds or 1 tablespoon juice
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup monterey jack cheese, Shredded (you can use Caciotta as well)
1/2 cup cheddar cheese or 1/2 cup longhorn cheese, shredded
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
4 kaiser rolls or 4 onion topped hamburger buns, split
lettuce leaf, for serving
sliced onion, for serving
sliced tomatoes, for serving
mayonnaise, for serving
ketchup, for serving

Steps:

  • Light your grill and when it is heated brush the grate with oil. Put the Anaheims in a small bowl with olive oil and toss to coat. Thread the jalapeños and garlic onto a metal skewer or a wooden one that has been soaked in water and grill until blackened all over. Repeat with the Anaheims using grill tongs to turn. Peel and remove stems and seeds from the chilies and discard. Peel garlic. Add tomatoes to a small bowl. Chop the chiles and garlic and add to the tomatoes. Fold in the cheeses, sprinkle with cumin, and chili powder and season with salt and pepper, toss.
  • Cut eight 6"squares of wax paper; divide the beef among them. Pat each portion into a 5" round pattie that is a little thicker in the center. Using a 1/4 cup measure, mound one-fourth of the cheese mixture in the centers of 4 patties. Top with the remaining patties; press the edges to seal and pat smooth. Pat the centers so that the burgers are even. Brush with oil and season with salt and pepper. Brush the insides of the rolls with oil.
  • Brush the grate with a little more oil and grill the burgers over a hot fire, turning once, about 7 minutes for medium to medium-rare meat. Lightly toast the rolls on the grill. Place the burgers on the rolls and top with lettuce leaves, onion and tomato. Serve with mayonnaise and ketchup.

AUTHENTIC CHILE CON QUESO



Authentic Chile con Queso image

This is a true chile con queso that can be eaten with tostadas or in a warm corn tortilla. This is not like the Americanized version of chili con queso that we have become used to that is a cheese dip, which I also love. This is the way my grandma used to make it. The great thing about this recipe is you can play with it and adjust it to your personal taste. If you like it cheesier add more cheese. You can't mess this up unless you burn it.

FAVORITE CHILE CON QUESO (A.K.A. CHILE CHEESE DIP)



Favorite Chile Con Queso (A.k.a. Chile Cheese Dip) image

I tweaked a recipe from the back of a can of Rotel Tomatoes to suit my friends and I. I have made it this way for many parties and have always gotten rave reviews. It works well in the crock pot also, and that way is recommended if you are making it for a party, etc. where it will need to be kept warm.

Provided by Chef Schellies

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 lbs Velveeta cheese
1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes and green chilies, diced. I like Rotel Original
1 (11 1/2 ounce) jar canned jalapeno slices, I like mild

Steps:

  • Dice the cheese into approximately 1-inch cubes.
  • Into a medium saucepan, put the cheese, Rotel tomatoes and the jalapeño slices, reserving the juice from the jalapeños.
  • Heat over medium heat approximately 5 minutes until the cheese is melted, stirring constantly.
  • Add the juice from the jalapeños to make the desired heat as well as the desired consistency. I usually add about 1/2-3/4 of it.
  • Serve hot with tortilla chips.
  • Can also be done in the crock pot to keep it warm for parties, etc.

CHILE CON QUESO Y CERVEZA



Chile con Queso y Cerveza image

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less. This quick Southwestern cheese dip benefits from a bit of brew in the mix - as it would from a cold Mexican beer enjoyed alongside.

Yield Makes 4 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups grated sharp Cheddar (about 1/4 pound)
2 cups grated Jarlsberg (about 1/4 pound)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 small onion, minced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3/4 cup beer (not dark)
1/2 cup drained canned tomatoes, chopped fine
1 bottle pickled jalapeño chili, minced (wear rubber gloves)
tortilla chips as an accompaniment.

Steps:

  • In a bowl toss the cheeses with the flour and reserve the mixture. In a large heavy saucepan cook the onion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened, add the beer, the tomatoes, and the jalapeño, and simmer the mixture for 5 minutes. Add the reserved cheese mixture by 1/2 cupfuls to the beer mixture, stirring after each addition until the cheeses are melted, serve the dip with the chips.

Tips:

  • To make the ultimate chile con queso, use a combination of sharp cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso Oaxaca cheeses. Freshly grated cheese melts best and provides the richest flavor.
  • Add some diced green chiles, roasted poblano peppers, or a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to the chile con queso for a spicy kick.
  • For a smoky flavor, toast the hamburger buns in a skillet with some butter before assembling the burgers.
  • Top the burgers with a fried egg, avocado slices, or crumbled bacon for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
  • Serve the burgers with your favorite sides, such as fries, onion rings, or coleslaw.
