AUTHENTIC CHILE CON QUESO



Authentic Chile con Queso image

This is a true chile con queso that can be eaten with tostadas or in a warm corn tortilla. This is not like the Americanized version of chili con queso that we have become used to that is a cheese dip, which I also love. This is the way my grandma used to make it. The great thing about this recipe is you can play with it and adjust it to your personal taste. If you like it cheesier add more cheese. You can't mess this up unless you burn it.

Provided by BobN

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 Hatch green chiles
3 jalapeños
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, diced
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 cups grated Asadero or White Cheddar cheese
Salt to taste
Tortillas for serving

Steps:

  • Roast the chilies and the jalapeños under the broiler until blackened, about 5 minutes per side. Place them in a paper sack or plastic food-storage bag, close it tightly and let them steam for 20 minutes. After the chilies have steamed, remove them from the bag and rub off the skin. Remove the stems and seeds from all the chiles and slice into thin, long strips. In a large skillet, heat the butter on medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for 30 more seconds. Pour the half-and-half in the skillet and then add the chile strips. Turn the heat down to low and, a little at a time, add the grated cheese, stirring until it's melted. Add salt to taste. Serve immediately with warm corn or flour tortillas.
