How to make?

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 pound fresh Mexican chorizo, casings removed

1/2 cup diced white onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped

2 poblano peppers, roasted, peeled and cut into strips

8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

8 ounces Oaxaca cheese, shredded

Tortilla chips or warm flour tortillas for serving

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook poblano pepper directly over an open gas flame until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Alternatively, cook under a broiler preheated to high, turning occasionally until charred on all sides. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rest 10 minutes, then peel and discard skin. Slit in half with a sharp chefs knife and discard seeds and stem. Cut flesh into 1/4-inch-wide strips and set aside.
