Ingredients

2 Tablespoons Butter
2 tablespoons Onion chopped
2 Tablespoons Poblano Pepper seeded and chopped
2 Tablespoons Serrano Pepper seeded and chopped
1 Garlic Clove minced
1 Teaspoon Chipotle Pepper in Adobo Sauce finely chopped
2 Teaspoons Cornstarch
1 Can 12 ounces Evaporated Milk
2 Cups Monterey Jack Cheese shredded
1 Cup Sharp White Cheddar Cheese shredded
1 Tablespoon Tomato chopped
½ Teaspoon Cumin
½ Teaspoon Salt
¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper
Tortilla chips for serving

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat then add the diced onion, poblano pepper and serrano pepper. Cook the vegetables for about 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and chipotle peppers and cook for one more minute.
Whisk the cornstarch and milk together in a small bowl and then add to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and stir frequently for 1-2 minutes until it begins to thicken.
Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the shredded Monterey Jack and white cheddar cheese.
Once the cheese is completely melted, stir in the chipped tomato, cumin, salt, and pepper. Serve with your favorite brand of tortilla chips or make your own baked tortilla chips. Keep the queso dip warm in a slow cooker, if needed.
