Ingredients

Copy Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound chorizo, casings removed
1/2 white onion, thinly sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, or serrano pepper, thinly sliced
1 (14.5 ounce) can Tuttorosso® Petite Diced Tomatoes
8 ounces Oaxaca cheese, pulled or shredded
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
fresh cilantro, for serving
Serve with flour tortillas

Instructions

Preheat a grill and a cast iron skillet over direct medium high heat for 5-10 minutes. When hot, add olive oil and chorizo sausage. Cook, breaking up with a spoon as needed, until mostly cooked through, about 4-6 minutes.
Add thinly sliced white onion and serrano peppers, then stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Stir in 1 can of Tuttorosso Petite Diced Tomatoes. Reserve about 1/2-1 cup of the chorizo mixture for the top of the Queso.
Add Oaxaca cheese and Monterey Jack, then carefully move the skillet to indirect heat, close the lid, and allow to melt slowly for 6-8 minutes.
Carefully remove the skillet from the grill, then allow to cool slightly. Sprinkle with cilantro, then serve immediately with flour tortillas.
