Queso Flameado Flaming Cheese Recipe

Queso Flameado Flaming Cheese

From linebb956 17 years ago

When we go onbus tours to interior Mexico, we stop a place called "Chino". They served us this and it was instant love. Enjoy

12 ounces Mexican chorizo (beef or pork) shopping list
1 (12-ounce) round Asadero cheese (or other white melting cheese) we have used Jack, mozzarella and provolove, as long as it is a REAL cheese. shopping list
1 green pepper sliced thin shopping list
Crumbled chiles shopping list
1 bunch green onions, finely chopped shopping list
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro shopping list
fresh corn or flour tortillas, as needed shopping list

Preheat oven to 300F.
Heat chorizo in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat, cool slightly and spoon off most of the fat.
Slice cheese into 1-inch cubes; place half in a 2-quart casserole dish. Top with half the chorizo the green peppers and remaining cheese. Top with remaining chorizo. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until creamy and bubbly.
Remove from oven.
Top mixture with crumbled chiles, green onions and cilantro. Serve immediately with tortillas. Use a spoon to serve on the tortillas.
Great for game watching, movie watching or just plain eating! The smell is awesome!

Yeah...this stuff is AWESOME. We always used a small cast iron skillet and didn't spoon off the fat. That way, we could do it on the stove top and the chorizo fat would prevent the cheese from sticking to the pan. I like the Asadero...but it's really good with a mixture of Asadero and Cotija cheeses. Try it. (They sell it at H-E-B)
