Ingredients

12 ounces chorizo
1/4 cup diced onion
1 poblano, diced
1 jalapeno, seeds removed and minced
1 large clove garlic, minced
1-2 cups grated asadero, queso quesadilla, or monterrey jack cheese

Directions

1

Cook the chorizo in a cast iron skillet until done. Remove the chorizo and set aside, remove any excess grease from the pan.
2

Sautee the onion, garlic, poblano, and jalapeno in the leftover grease until softened and fragrant. Remove half of the pepper mixture and set aside.
3

Stir the chorizo in with the remaining pepper mixture. Top with shredded cheese and reserved peppers.
4

Bake at 325 degrees for about 10 minutes until heated through and bubbling. Serve with fresh tortillas (or very sturdy chips). If you need this to feed a crowd, or are just running low on ingredients spread a layer of refried beans on the bottom, it will absorb all the flavor and make the dish go even further.
