QUESO DIP WITH CRAWFISH (SPICY)



Queso Dip with Crawfish (Spicy) image

We ordered a dip like this at a restaurant recently and I decided to try and re-create it. Thanks to the "chipotle" suggestion from my bud Riff I believe this is exact. It may sound awkward with crawfish but I assure you it is wonderful and ever so easy to make.

Time 20m

Yield 1 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (1 lb) box Velveeta cheese
1 can chipotle chile in adobo
1 package frozen crawfish meat
1 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • ~Iused my crockpot for this~.
  • Cube the cheese to make melting easier.
  • Cut the end off each pepper and push the seeds out with the flat portion of a knife then dice finely.
  • If crawfish meat portions are too large, cut into smaller pieces.
  • Put all ingredients into crockpot including the adobe sauce from your peppers, stir frequently to allow all to melt and blend.
  • I served with multi colored tortilla chips.
  • The chipotle pepper is very spicy so you may want to omit the chili powder or cut back on the number of peppers if you do not like it spicy.
  • *Thestore brand of Velveta works very well and the crawfish amount is just over a cup and I am sure you can use fresh as well.
  • This is also easy to make in the microwave but making it in a crockpot you can serve it in it as well keeping the dip warm.
