Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 10 servings (about 2 1/2 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ounces fresh chorizo, casings removed, crumbled
Olive oil, as needed
1 small red onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
5 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Mexican lager-style beer, such as Negra Modelo
1/4 cup chopped pickled jalapeno, plus 1 tablespoon pickling juice
3/4 cup milk
4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, finely diced (about 1 cup)
4 ounces whole-milk mozzarella, finely diced (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Warmed tortilla wedges, tortilla chips, bell pepper triangles or French fries, for dipping

Steps:

  • Cook the chorizo, stirring, in a medium skillet or a flameproof gratin dish over medium-high heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and pour off any excess rendered fat, reserving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. If there is less than 1 tablespoon, add enough olive oil to make 1 tablespoon.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until the flour is golden, 1 minute. Pour in the beer and bring to a boil. Stir in the chopped jalapenos and pickling juice and cook 2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, whisking, and bring to a gentle boil until thickened, about 1 minute. Add the cheeses and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cheese fully melts, about 3 minutes. Stir in the reserved chorizo. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the cilantro and serve warm with dippers.

CHORIZO QUESO



Chorizo Queso image

Provided by Eric Greenspan

Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound fresh Mexican chorizo, casings removed
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
8 ounces heavy cream
3 roasted red peppers, peeled, seeded and chopped
One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 pound American cheese, cubed
4 ounces shredded Cheddar
Kosher salt
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup diced pickles
1 avocado, diced
2 jalapenos, chopped
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Tortilla chips or potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chorizo in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until a significant amount of fat is released, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the flour and cream to the chorizo and whisk. Let simmer and continue to whisk, until thick, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the red peppers and black beans and stir to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. ([Disclaimer:] When blending hot liquid, first let it cool for five minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling only halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth.) Return it to the saucepan, add both cheeses and cook over low heat, stirring until the cheese is fully melted, about 3 minutes. Taste and season with salt.
  • Transfer the queso to a heatproof serving bowl. Top it with the onion, pickles, avocado, and jalapenos. Garnish with the cilantro and serve warm with tortilla chips or potato chips.

CHORI-QUESO OR CHORIQUESO TACOS



Chori-Queso or Choriqueso Tacos image

This "chori-queso"... a delectable combo of chorizo and Mexican melting cheese... was coaxed out of the world's tallest Mexican through the judicial application of wine and liberally distributed compliments on his guacamole and salsa verde. I may have to up the ante on my plying to get the recipes for the aforementioned guac and salsa.

Provided by Tzitzimitl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 10 tacos (maybe more), 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb chorizo sausage
1 lb mexican cheese (asadero, oaxaca or chihuahua work best)
1 tablespoon oil
corn tortilla
guacamole
salsa
queso blanco

Steps:

  • Fry the chorizo in oil until completely "browned" (good chorizo is red) and very crispy. (At this point, I'd drain the oil off of it -- although Alex says that "authentically" it should be left swimming in the pan.) Keep the chorizo on heat that's just high enough to keep it hot.
  • Heat another pan over medium heat.
  • When the pan is hot, place a corn tortilla in the bottom for about 15-30 seconds and then flip it and repeat this with the opposite side (15-30 seconds; then flip. This will help prevent sticking).
  • Cut a reasonable piece of Mexican cheese and place on one half of the tortilla in the hot pan. When it starts to melt, spoon about a tablespoon of chorizo onto the melting cheese, fold the tortilla in half and immediately remove the taco from the heat.
  • Stuff a little guacamole, salsa, queso blanco, sour cream or whatever you prefer in the tortilla to keep it company and immediately eat.
  • These are good HOT -- so don't bother making a bunch ahead. This is the kind of food you cook for people standing around in the kitchen so they can eat it fresh.

CREAMY QUESO WITH CHORIZO



Creamy Queso With Chorizo image

In defense of Velveeta: Its texture is supreme in a queso recipe like this one. Chorizo boosts the savory, smoky flavor.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 ounces fresh chorizo, casings removed
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
8 ounces Velveeta cheese, cut into cubes
8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, grated
8 ounces sharp cheddar, grated
2 tablespoons chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo
1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon ancho chile powder
3/4 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
2 ounces crumbled Cotija cheese or queso fresco

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring and breaking up with a spoon, until browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes; set aside.
  • Heat half-and-half and Velveeta in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until Velveeta is melted, 6-8 minutes. Add Monterey Jack and cheddar; cook, stirring, until mixture is smooth. Mix in chipotle chiles, salt, and both chile powders.
  • Transfer queso to a warm dish and top with Cotija cheese and reserved chorizo.
  • DO AHEAD: Queso (without toppings) can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chorizo: This is the star of the dish, so don't skimp on the quality. Look for a chorizo that is made with fresh, flavorful pork and has a good balance of fat and spice.
  • Cook the chorizo until it is slightly crispy: This will help to release its flavor and give it a nice texture.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will also make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. A good melting cheese, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or queso Oaxaca, is a good choice.
  • Add some other ingredients for flavor: Feel free to add other ingredients to the queso con chorizo to taste. Some popular options include diced tomatoes, green chiles, or roasted corn.
  • Serve the queso con chorizo immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh and hot. Serve it with tortilla chips, vegetables, or your favorite Mexican dishes.

Conclusion:

Queso con chorizo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great appetizer, snack, or main course. If you are looking for a new Mexican dish to try, give queso con chorizo a try. You won't be disappointed!
