Mexican: White Chili Con Queso

Source of Recipe

Mimi's: Plano_Gal


List of Ingredients

-4 fresh anaheim chilis (or any other chili pepper you like)
-2 tbsp. vegetable oil
-1 tsp. cumin
-1 cup chopped roma tomatoes
-1 yellow onion, peeled and chopped
-2 cloves garlic, minced
-3 oz. cream cheese
-1/4 tsp. white pepper
-2 tbsp. chopped cilantro
-2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese
-2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
-1 tbsp. sour cream




Recipe

-Char the chilis in the broiler.
-Place in a paper bag to steam off skin.
-Rub off the skin; stem and seed and coarsely chop (I wear gloves when doing this).
-Heat oil in a large pan.
-Add onion and garlic and cook slowly until tender.
-Add chilis, tomatoes, cumin, cilantro and white pepper and cook for 10 minutes.
-Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and shredded cheese, stirring constantly until cheese melts (be careful to keep the heat low, or the cheese will "seize" and become stringy).
-Stir in the sour cream.

**Serve hot with tortilla chips.
