Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

2 medium tomatoes—cored, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice

2 jalapeños, seeded and minced

1 small onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice

Kosher salt

3 tablespoons tequila

1/2 pound Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (3 cups)

1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro

Warm corn tortillas or corn chips, for serving

Directions

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil.

Add the diced tomatoes, minced jalapeños, diced onion and a large pinch of salt and cook over moderately high heat, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Pour in the tequila and cook, stirring frequently, until the skillet looks nearly dry, about 2 minutes.

Reduce the heat to low.

Add the cheese and cook, stirring constantly, until fully melted, about 30 seconds.

Quickly transfer the queso fundido to a serving bowl.

Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately, with tortillas or chips.
