Queso Fundido Recipe with Chorizo & Chipotle | Gran Luchito (2024)

How to make it

1. Make a quick pico de gallo in a bowl. Add the cherry tomatoes, onion, lime juice, coriander, and extra virgin olive oil. Mix everything with a spoon and season with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Once ready set aside.
2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes. Add the chorizo to the pan and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of the Crunchy Salsa Macha and stir well.
3. Reserve half of the fried chorizo mixture in a bowl. Return the pan to the heat, add the beer, and bring to a boil. Stir for a minute or so to deglaze the pan by mixing in any bits that have stuck to the pan and allow the alcohol to evaporate. The liquid should reduce to half.
4. Gradually add the cheese, a small handful at a time, stirring until it melts fully before adding more. Do this over low heat until you have added all your cheese and it becomes deliciously gooey and smooth.
5. Serve your authentic queso fundido recipe in the same pan or transfer it to a nicer bowl. Garnish with the remaining fried chorizo on top, the pico de gallo, and the remaining Crunchy Salsa Macha. Bring it to the middle of the table with warm Soft Taco Wraps on the side, ready to make deliciously cheesy tacos.
