Queso fundido al tequila

Queso fundido al tequila is a traditional dish that's usually served as an appetizer or a dip. It's made with a combination of chorizo, sweet onions, tequila, green chili peppers, flour, tomato salsa, and cheese such as Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or a sharp cheddar.


The tomatoes, chili peppers, and onions are sautéed in olive oil until soft, followed by the addition of tequila and cheese. The combination is simmered until the cheese fully melts, and the dish is then placed into a bowl and served garnished with chopped coriander.


This dip is traditionally served with tortillas or tortilla chips on the side.
