Recipe Instructions:
- Begin by frying the chorizo sausage in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to ensure the sausage crumbles into small pieces. This process should take about 8-10 minutes, or until the sausage is fully cooked.
- Once the sausage is cooked through, drain any excess grease and transfer the cooked sausage to a microwavable dish.
- Add the cheese to the dish with the cooked sausage, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout.
- Place the dish in the microwave and heat on medium-high power until the cheese is completely melted. This typically takes 2-3 minutes, but be sure to stir the mixture a few times during the microwaving process to ensure even melting.
- Once the cheese is melted and the dip is hot and bubbly, remove it from the microwave and give it a final stir to combine all the ingredients.
- Serve the chorizo dip hot with your choice of accompaniments, such as tortilla chips or warm corn or flour tortillas.
- Enjoy this delicious dip as a snack or appetizer, or pair it with other Mexican dishes for a flavorful meal.
