CHORIQUESO

YUMMY. I am from a border town in Texas, this is really simple. I can't think of any other way they serve cheese in Mexican restaurants. This is also good with avocado, salsa, and fajitas.

Time 25m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons corn oil
8 ounces chorizo sausage
8 ounces sliced mozzarella cheese
1 (12 ounce) package corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat the corn oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Crumble in the chorizo sausage; cook and stir until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan, and set aside. Place slices of cheese in a single layer to cover the bottom of the pan. It is okay if they overlap a little bit. When cheese melts, quickly pour into a nice casserole dish, or oven-proof bowl. Sprinkle the chorizo on top.
  • Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is fully melted. Remove from the oven, stick a fork in it and load your tortilla.

In defense of Velveeta: Its texture is supreme in a queso recipe like this one. Chorizo boosts the savory, smoky flavor.

CHORI-QUESO OR CHORIQUESO TACOS



Chori-Queso or Choriqueso Tacos image

This "chori-queso"... a delectable combo of chorizo and Mexican melting cheese... was coaxed out of the world's tallest Mexican through the judicial application of wine and liberally distributed compliments on his guacamole and salsa verde. I may have to up the ante on my plying to get the recipes for the aforementioned guac and salsa.

Provided by Tzitzimitl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 10 tacos (maybe more), 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb chorizo sausage
1 lb mexican cheese (asadero, oaxaca or chihuahua work best)
1 tablespoon oil
corn tortilla
guacamole
salsa
queso blanco

Steps:

  • Fry the chorizo in oil until completely "browned" (good chorizo is red) and very crispy. (At this point, I'd drain the oil off of it -- although Alex says that "authentically" it should be left swimming in the pan.) Keep the chorizo on heat that's just high enough to keep it hot.
  • Heat another pan over medium heat.
  • When the pan is hot, place a corn tortilla in the bottom for about 15-30 seconds and then flip it and repeat this with the opposite side (15-30 seconds; then flip. This will help prevent sticking).
  • Cut a reasonable piece of Mexican cheese and place on one half of the tortilla in the hot pan. When it starts to melt, spoon about a tablespoon of chorizo onto the melting cheese, fold the tortilla in half and immediately remove the taco from the heat.
  • Stuff a little guacamole, salsa, queso blanco, sour cream or whatever you prefer in the tortilla to keep it company and immediately eat.
  • These are good HOT -- so don't bother making a bunch ahead. This is the kind of food you cook for people standing around in the kitchen so they can eat it fresh.

Tips for Making Chori Queso:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh chorizo, cheese, and tomatoes will give your chori queso the best flavor.
  • Cook the chorizo thoroughly. This will help to render the fat and develop the flavor.
  • Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese will give your chori queso a rich, cheesy flavor.
  • Don't overcook the cheese. Overcooked cheese will become tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately. Chori queso is best served fresh and hot.

Conclusion:

Chori queso is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With its creamy, cheesy texture and spicy chorizo flavor, chori queso is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dish to make, give chori queso a try. You won't be disappointed!
