Yield 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 large poblano (pasillas) chiles
1 1/4 pounds chorizo sausage links (about 8), casing removed
5 large garlic cloves, chopped
24 green onions, chopped
2 1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/4 pounds Monterey Jack cheese, coarsely grated (about 5 cups)
1 1/4 pounds whole-milk mozzarella cheese, coarsely grated (about 5 cups)
2 1/2 T cornstarch
2 cups (or more) low-salt chicken broth
Tortilla chips

Steps:

  • Char chiles directly over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides; enclose in paper bag 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and coarsely chop chiles. Saute sausage and garlic in very large skillet over medium-high heat until browned, breaking into pieces, about 20 minutes. Add green onions; stir until wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in cilantro and poblano chiles. Toss both cheeses and cornstarchs in large bowl until coated. Bring 2 C broth to a simmer in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add cheese by the cupfuls, whisking until each addition is almost melted before adding the next. Remove from heat. Stir in chorizo mixture. Thin with more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if too thick. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl; serve with tortilla chips.
