Queso fundido with sausage and chipotle chiles

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ pounds Hot italian sausage
1¾ cup Onion; chopped
1 cup Fresh cilantro; chopped
2 teaspoons Canned chipotle chiles; chopped
10 ounces Monterey jack cheese; grated
12 smalls Flour tortillas

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Remove casings from the sausage and saute with the onion in a large skillet, breaking up the sausage into small pieces with the back of a spoon. Cook about 10 minutes.

3. Mix in ½ cup cilantro and 1 teaspoon chipotle chiles.

4. Transfer mixture to a 9 inch baking dish.

5. Combine remaining cilantro, grated cheese and remaining chipotles in a medium bowl.

6. Sprinkle cheese mixture over sausage mixture and bake for 10-15 minutes Notes: We make this often at our house since we discovered the recipe. It's quick and easy to make and very tasty. Roll up in warm flour tortillas with sour cream and salsa. A nice salad with a tangy vinagrette rounds this out well, although we often serve cilantro chile mashed potatoes Recipe by: Bon Appetit - February 1997 Posted to TNT - Prodigy's Recipe Exchange Newsletter by RecipeLu <recipelu@...> on Nov 29, 1997
