Integrated
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 ounce Mexican-style chorizo
- 1 green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 fluid ounces tequila
- 1 pound Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1 (8 ounce) package white Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/8 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 eaches plum tomatoes, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Heat oil in a 9-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo; cook, stirring to crumble, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Without cleaning the skillet, add bell peppers and onion. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until browned and softened, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in tequila. Continue cooking vegetables, stirring often, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a bowl.
Stir together Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses in a bowl; spread 1/3 in the skillet. Add 1/3 of the vegetables, then 1/3 of the chorizo. Repeat with 2 more layers, ending with chorizo. Sprinkle with chili powder.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheeses are melted and bubbling, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with tomatoes, cilantro, and salt. Serve immediately.
