Ingredients

  • ½ cup of onion diced
  • 3 garlic cloves diced
  • 8 oz of chorizo
  • 4 cups of monterey jack cheese/stringy cheese
  • 1/2 cup of pico de gallo
  • Cilantro

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350F.
  • Add two tablespoons of oil to a medium skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, add your diced onions and garlic and saute them in a pan for about 3-5 minutes.
  • Once cooked, add your chorizo and cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart as you stir. Take off the heat once the chorizo is fully cooked.
  • In an oven safe dish or cast iron, place half of your cheese (2 cups) on the bottom of the dish. Next, add a layer of your cooked chorizo. Finally, top it off with the remainder of the cheese and cook in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until the cheese is melted and slightly browned on top.
  • Once out of the oven, top off the queso fundido with the remaining cooked chorizo, some fresh pico de gallo and cilantro.
  • Serve with either tostito chips or bread and enjoy!
