Ingredients

4 servings

4 medium roasted Hatch chiles ((medium or hot))
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium shallots, (chopped finely)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
8 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese
salt and pepper
tortilla chips, (for serving)

Steps

Cut open the roasted green chiles and scrape out the seeds. Then chop the green chiles and shallots.
In a medium pot over medium heat, melt the butter and add shallots and chiles. Cook, stirring regularly, until the shallots are softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
Stir the flour into the pot and cook for a minute or two until the mixture forms a paste.
Slowly drizzle in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. A whisk helps, but you can also just use a spoon.
Once the milk is added, stir in the grated cheese. When the cheese is melted, season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Serve queso immediately, while hot, with tortilla chips and garnish with a little extra green chile on top.
