Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces fresh pork chorizo
½ cup sliced green onions, white and lighter green parts (green parts reserved)
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 poblano chile peppers, diced
2 jalapeno peppers, diced
4 ounces cream cheese
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
4 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
¼ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Place chorizo, green onions, red bell pepper, poblano chilies, and jalapeno in a cold skillet. Turn heat to medium-high. As skillet comes up to temperature break up chorizo into very small pieces. Continue cooking until sausage is browned and peppers are barely cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. If sausage releases a lot of grease, mop up some with a paper towel.
  • Mix cream cheese, sausage mixture, Monterey Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, and sour cream in a bowl. Transfer to a shallow, heat-proof baking dish.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Broil on high until browned and bubbly, 5 or 6 minutes.

I followed the recipe exactly but my dish didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty but not as cheesy as I expected.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more spices next time.

This was a great recipe. I made it for my family and they loved it. The chorizo and cheese were a great combination and the avocado and cilantro added a nice freshness.

I love this recipe! It's so simple but so delicious. I usually add a few diced tomatoes and some chopped jalapenos to give it a little extra flavor.

This was so easy to make and it was so good! I used a medium-spice chorizo and it was the perfect amount of heat. The cheese was melted and gooey and the avocado and cilantro added a nice touch. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not usually a fan of chorizo, but this dish was amazing! The cheese and avocado mellowed out the spice of the chorizo, and the whole thing was just so creamy and delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.
