Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces fresh chorizo or spicy sausage, casing removed
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ sweet onion, diced
1 poblano pepper, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ¼ cups whole milk
1 Roma tomato, diced
1 8-ounce package shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 8-ounce package shredded Pepper Jack cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, divided
¼ cup pickled jalapeno peppers

Instructions

Preheat oven to broil on high. Arrange an oven rack 3-inches from the broiler.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add chorizo or sausage and cook until browned, about 5-8 minutes, making sure to crumble the chorizo or sausage as it cooks. Drain excess fat; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
Add garlic, onion and pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in milk and tomato. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 4-5 minutes.
Remove from heat. Gradually stir in cheeses until smooth; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in 1/2 the chorizo or sausage and 1/2 cup cilantro.
Place into oven and broil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve immediately with remaining chorizo and cilantro, garnished with pickled jalapeno peppers, if desired.
