Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare Ingredients

Begin by removing the casing from 8 oz of Mexican chorizo. Set it aside for later use. Then, peel and finely chop 1 medium yellow onion and 2 garlic cloves. This preparation ensures your dip will be infused with flavor. Grate 2 cups of cheddar cheese and 2 cups of Monterey Jack cheese. Combine them and let sit at room temperature. This promotes easier melting for a smoother dip.

2
Cook Chorizo

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped chorizo, stirring occasionally, until it's fully cooked and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the chorizo to a bowl, leaving the fat rendered from the chorizo in the skillet for cooking the onion.

3
Sauté Onion and Garlic

In the same skillet with the chorizo fat, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. This will infuse the base with a rich flavor.

4
Combine and Melt Cheese

Lower the heat to medium-low and add the canned diced tomatoes with green chilis (including the juice) to the skillet. Stir in 1/2 cup of milk and gradually add the grated cheeses, stirring continuously, until the cheese has melted completely and the mixture is creamy and uniform.

5
Add Chorizo and Serve

Return the cooked chorizo to the skillet, stirring it into the cheesy mixture until everything is evenly incorporated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the dip is hot throughout. Serve the Queso Chorizo Dip warm with tortilla chips or your favorite dippers.
