So, so good!

Fire Roasted Poblano Queso Dip

Simply rinse off your poblanos and toss them on a hot grill to roast them until the skin begins to blister. Allow them to cool on a plate, and carefully peel the skin off the poblano and set aside.

Once the roasted skin has been peeled off, remove the stem and seeds. Then finely chop and set aside until the dip is done.

To make the dip, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk to make a roux (about 30 seconds to 1 minute). Whisk in your milk slowly and cook, stirring constantly until thickened, 3-5 minutes.

Reduce the heat to low and add your shredded Monterey jack cheese, cream cheese, salt, paprika, pepper and cayenne (optional!)  Once the cheese has melted and the spices have combined, stir in the chopped poblanos that you previously set aside.

Garnish with additional poblanos and serve with tortilla chips.

Note: this is a mild dip  – so feel free to add more heat!  What doesn’t get devoured can be refrigerated and reheated up to one week later.
