Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces fresh chorizo or spicy sausage, casing removed
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 sweet onion, diced
1 poblano pepper, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1 Roma tomato, diced
1 (8-ounce) package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 (8-ounce) package shredded Pepper Jack cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, divided
1/4 cup pickled jalapeno peppers

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to broil on high. Arrange an oven rack 3-inches from the broiler. Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo or sausage and cook until browned, about 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the chorizo or sausage as it cooks. Drain excess fat; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Add garlic, onion and pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in milk and tomato. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in cheeses until smooth; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in 1/2 the chorizo or sausage and 1/2 cup cilantro. Place into oven and broil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately with remaining chorizo and cilantro, garnished with pickled jalapeno peppers, if desired.

When I couldn't figure out what to do with a roll of bulk chorizo sausage, this recipe was born. It may sound similar to other dip recipes, but don't let that fool you...the flavor of this dip definitely sets it apart from the rest. This also reheats well. Enjoy!
