QUESO FUNDIDO WITH CHORIZO



Queso fundido with chorizo image

There is a recipe where the cheese is melted directly on a griddle and then scooped onto a plate, another where it's baked in the oven or placed under the broiler. You can also make it in a small skillet right on top of the stove or on the grill where you make your steaks.

Categories     Antojitos

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
5 ounces Mexican Chorizo (casings removed.)
12 ounces Monterey or Oaxaca Cheese (grated (2 1/2 cups))
6 Flour tortillas (or)
12 ounces tortilla chips (for serving)
1 1/2 cup of Roasted Salsa

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place a skillet over medium heat, add the oil if using. Most Mexican chorizos have enough fat and won't need the vegetable oil. Add the chorizo and cook, stir frequently to cook evenly and avoid it from sticking to the bottom. It'll take about 6-7 minutes to cook.
  • Once cooked, remove the excess fat from the skillet or place the cooked chorizo over a paper towel to absorb the fat.
  • Place the chorizo in an oven proof dish, setting aside 2 tablespoons to garnish when ready to serve. I divided the chorizo and cheese into 2 small clay pots, but you can use a large oven proof dish.
  • Place the grated cheese over the chorizo and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Do not overcook or it will have a chewy texture.
  • Remove form oven and place over a heat proof surface. Serve warm with salsa and plenty of flour tortillas or tortilla chips.

POLLO FUNDIDO

Time 1h

Yield 16-20 burritos, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 green pepper, finely diced
1/2 large onion, finely diced

Queso Fundido Colorado Recipe image

Colorado sauce made from smoky peppers adds a kick to this meatless queso fundido recipe. Serve it hot with plenty of tortillas and chips for dipping!

Provided by The Wanderlust Kitchen

Categories     Appetizers

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 dried New Mexico chili peppers
2 dried Ancho chili peppers
1 dried Chipotle chili pepper
2 cloves garlic (peeled)
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 cup grapeseed or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups vegetable or mushroom broth
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 cup diced yellow onion
3/4 cup Colorado sauce (divided)
8 ounces shredded Monterrey jack cheese
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup diced ripe tomato
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 package Old El Paso™ Burrito-Size Flour Tortillas

Steps:

  • While wearing hand protection, remove the stems and seeds from all of the chili peppers and tear them into small pieces. Wash hands thoroughly. Fill a bowl with hot water and soak the chili pepper pieces for 10-15 minutes, until soft. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the soaking water.
  • Transfer the soaked peppers to the bowl of a blender and add the garlic, oregano, cumin, coriander, oil, and salt. Pulse the blender a few times, and then add in the broth and reserved soaking water. Puree until liquefied.
  • Place a large sauté pan over medium-heat on your stove top. Holding a fine mesh sieve over the top of the pan, pour the contents of the blender through the sieve to strain out any remaining solids. Discard solids.
  • Bring the sauce to a soft boil; reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the consistency of Enchilada sauce. Set aside 3/4 cup for the Fundido recipe; store remaining sauce in the fridge for 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Preheat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium oven-safe skillet set over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the diced onion and sauté for 4-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Scoop out half of the onion and set aside. Drizzle in 1/4 cup of the Colorado sauce over the remaining onions in the pan. Top with half of the shredded Monterrey cheese and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Scatter the reserved onions over the top of the cheese in the pan and drizzle with another 1/4 cup of Colorado sauce. Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 12-18 minutes, until cheese is bubble and brown. Pour the remaining 1/4 cup of Colorado sauce over the top and garnish with the tomatoes and cilantro. Serve with warm tortillas for scooping.

GREEN QUESO FUNDIDO



Green Queso Fundido image

Not only is it fun to say, it's tasty. Another from Rick Bayless on PBS. You need to make the Chorizo Verde, but not to worry, I posted that also. I could not find one on 'Zaar'. I did forget the spinach so I had to do plan 'B'. This over white rice. It was incredible.

Provided by Tugar357

Categories     Mexican

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium white onion, sliced
5 ounces green chorizo sausage
3 tablespoons beer
2 cups spinach leaves, coarsely chopped
8 ounces monterey jack cheese, shredded
12 flour tortillas
1 cup salsa

Steps:

  • 1.Here is where Rick and I differ. I caramelized the onions a little before adding the Chorizo. He likes them crunchy.
  • 2. Prepare the flavorings. Heat the oil in a large (10-inch) skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and chorizo and cook, stirring regularly and breaking up any clumps, until the chorizo is cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the beer or other liquid ( white wine, tequila, water, or chicken stock) and the spinach; stir until the liquid has evaporated and the mixture is once again dry looking.
  • 3. Finish the queso fundido. Reduce the heat to medium-low, sprinkle the cheese evenly over the vegetables and stir slowly and constantly until just melted-too long over the heat and the cheese will become tough, oily and stringy. Immediately scoop into a warm serving dish (a small fondue dish with a tea light below is ideal) and serve with warm tortillas and salsa for making soft tacos.
  • NOTE: If you use beer, Monterrey Jack is the best cheese.

2 poblano chiles
1 jalapeno chile
Canola oil, for oiling the chiles
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk, heated
Pinch chile de arbol powder or cayenne pepper
3 ounces grated Monterey Jack cheese
2 ounces grated white Cheddar (see Cook's Note)

3 cups red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Remove to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and seeds and dice or slice.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat, then add the flour and whisk until smooth and the raw flour taste has cooked out, about 2 minutes.
  • Slowly whisk in the hot milk, then bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and the chile de arbol.
  • Reduce the heat to low and begin adding the cheese a handful at a time, whisking until smooth. Taste for seasoning and fold in some of the diced chiles. Pour into a fondue pot.
  • Mix the remaining diced chiles with the Pickled Red Onions and cilantro and top the queso with the mixture. Serve with tortilla chips, tortillas or radishes.
  • Saute the onions in 1 tablespoon oil in a saute pan over medium-low heat until soft.
  • Meanwhile, place the vinegar, sugar, peppercorns, thyme sprigs and 1/4 cup oil in a noncorrosive saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the onions to the hot liquid and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and allow the onions to steep for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight. (If steeping overnight, transfer to a bowl and cover.)

QUESO FUNDIDO

No offense to salsa, but come on, who doesn't love a gooey, cheesy bean dip, bubbling hot like lava from the broiler? If you're a chile head, you'll probably want to up the number of chiles and leave the seeds in. If your friends are more, ahem, delicate, then stick with one chile and remove the seeds and ribs.
