Creamy Chorizo Queso Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring and breaking up with a spoon, until browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes; set aside.
• Heat half-and-half and Velveeta in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until Velveeta is melted, 6-8 minutes. Add Monterey Jack and cheddar; cook, stirring, until mixture is smooth. Mix in chipotle chiles, salt, and both chile powders.
• Transfer queso to a warm dish and top with Cotija cheese and reserved chorizo.
• DO AHEAD: Queso (without toppings) can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Place the chorizo in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until a significant amount of fat is released, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the flour and cream to the chorizo and whisk. Let simmer and continue to whisk, until thick, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the red peppers and black beans and stir to combine.
• Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. ([Disclaimer:] When blending hot liquid, first let it cool for five minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling only halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth.) Return it to the saucepan, add both cheeses and cook over low heat, stirring until the cheese is fully melted, about 3 minutes. Taste and season with salt.
• Transfer the queso to a heatproof serving bowl. Top it with the onion, pickles, avocado, and jalapenos. Garnish with the cilantro and serve warm with tortilla chips or potato chips.

Steps:

• Cook and stir chorizo sausage in a skillet over medium heat until cooked completely, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and transfer to a slow cooker.

• Cook on Low until cheese is melted, stirring occasionally, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Steps:

• Cook the chorizo, stirring, in a medium skillet or a flameproof gratin dish over medium-high heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and pour off any excess rendered fat, reserving about 1 tablespoon in the pan. If there is less than 1 tablespoon, add enough olive oil to make 1 tablespoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until the flour is golden, 1 minute. Pour in the beer and bring to a boil. Stir in the chopped jalapenos and pickling juice and cook 2 minutes. Gradually add the milk, whisking, and bring to a gentle boil until thickened, about 1 minute. Add the cheeses and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cheese fully melts, about 3 minutes. Stir in the reserved chorizo. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the cilantro and serve warm with dippers.

Alternatively, you can prepare in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring constantly, but melting time may differ.
