This queso-inspired dip can be assembled up to three days ahead, then stashed in the fridge before you’re ready to serve. Just pop it in the oven, get it nice and bubbly, and serve it to your happy tailgate guests with plenty of chips for dipping. Cook Mode (Keep screen awake) Ingredients 5 medium poblano chiles (about 1 lb. total) 2 (8-oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened 1/2 cup chopped scallions (from 4 medium scallions) 1/4 cup sour cream 1 tsp. ground cumin 3/4 tsp. kosher salt 1 large garlic clove, grated (about 1/2 tsp.) 8 oz. Monterey Jack cheese, shredded and divided (about 2 cups) Tortilla chips Directions Preheat oven to broil with oven rack about 7 inches from heat source. Coat a medium (10-inch) cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet with cooking spray; set aside. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange chiles on prepared baking sheet. Broil, turning occasionally, until blackened all over, about 10 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven; reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Wrap foil tightly around chiles, and let stand 10 minutes. Unwrap chiles. Rub off skins; cut stems from chiles. Slice chiles in half lengthwise; scrape out seeds. (Discard skins, stems, and seeds.) Cut halves lengthwise into thin strips; cut strips into 1-inch pieces. Stir together cream cheese, scallions, sour cream, cumin, salt, and grated garlic in a bowl. Stir in chiles and 1 1/2 cups of the Monterey Jack. Spread dip into prepared skillet. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup Monterey Jack over dip. Bake, uncovered, at 350°F until bubbly, about 25 minutes. Serve warm with tortilla chips. Rate It Print
