Preparation
Step 1
Heat the oil in an 8- or 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chorizo and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes; drain off most of the liquid.
Add the tomato, onion, and jalapeño and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion begins to soften and brown, about 7 minutes.
Add the tequila (if using) and cook, stirring, until reduced to a glaze.
Sprinkle in the cheese.
Stir slowly and constantly until just melted then stir in the cilantro.
Serve immediately in a warm dish with chips for dipping.
