Clinton Kelly’s Spicy Queso Dip

2

1 tablespoon Oil
1 small White Onion (very finely diced)
1 Red Bell Pepper (finely minced)
2 to 3 Jalapenos (minced)
1 cup Heavy Cream
1 pound Yellow American Cheese (shredded)
8 ounces Pepperjack Cheese (shredded)
1 bunch Cilantro leaves (chopped)
Salt and Freshly Ground Pepper
Tortilla Chips to serve

Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, jalapeno, and a generous pinch of salt, cooking until very soft. Add the cream and bring to a simmer. Add the cheese, stirring continuously, until it has all melted, and season to taste.

Garnish with cilantro and serve with tortilla chips. If entertaining, serve in an oven safe bowl or crock that has been warmed in the oven.

Helpful Tips:
1. Salt the onions and peppers to draw out moisture.
2. Try leftover queso dip as a spread for sandwiches or a hearty burger.
