Method
- Preheat oven to broil on high. Arrange an oven rack 3-inches from the broiler.
- Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo or sausage and cook until browned, about 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the chorizo or sausage as it cooks. Drain excess fat; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Add garlic, onion and poblano pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
- Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in milk and tomato. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 4-5 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Gradually stir in cheeses until smooth; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in 1/2 the chorizo or sausage and 1/2 cup cilantro.
- Place into oven and broil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve immediately with remaining chorizo and cilantro, garnished with pickled jalapeno peppers, if desired.
Notes
This dip is best served warm and can be enjoyed with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or even as a topping for tacos.
