Spicy Monte Cristo Sandwich

  • 🧀 Grilled cheese burger secrets: shaved jalapenos and onions.

Trust me, this simple step adds a ton of flavor. Plus, if you’re a grilled cheese purist you know that too many toppings transform this into a patty melt, or something else. 

Or, cook the way you want to and call it what you want - honestly, it’s not that important.

Full recipe is in the link in my bio @chilesandsmoke or also on chilesandsmoke.com

  • Do you want a slice? Save this recipe for Arizona Cheese Crisp and join me.

#ad I’m celebrating @caciquefoods 50th anniversary by taking a local Arizona dish to the next level. Arizona Cheese Crisps are open-faced baked quesadillas made with large flour tortillas, and toasted with butter and cheese. This is something that you’d order on a kid’s menu at Mexican restaurants when I was growing up, rather than mac and cheese.

I’m working with Cacique to show you how their delicious and authentic Hispanic products can help transform regional favorites from across the country into something truly special. I’ve been using their food for decades, from the variety of cheeses, chorizos, salsas, and more. I love that they started their business selling cheese out of a Pontiac, and still maintain the family-owned operations.

Try my updated version of an Arizona Cheese Crisp with this combination, trust me:
2 poblano chiles
9 ounces Cacique Pork Chorizo
4 large 10-12” flour tortillas
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
2 cups Cacique Queso Oaxaca, shredded
Cacique Crema Mexicana, for garnish
Cacique Ranchero brand Queso Fresco, crumbled, for garnish
2 scallions, diced (optional)

Roast the chiles until the skin is blistered in your oven at 400°F or over a grill. Place in a plastic bag for about 10 minutes to let the skin steam. Remove the skin, stems, and seeds, and chop them finely.
Cook the Chorizo in a large pan at medium-low heat, stirring to cook evenly. Remove once the Chorizo is 160°F and cooked. Drain on a paper towel.
Preheat the oven to 350°F or your smoker to 375°F. Poke holes in the tortilla all over with a knife, and then brush on the butter. Using a baking sheet or pizza pan, bake the tortillas for about 6 minutes until slightly crispy.

Pull out the tortillas from the oven and layer on your Oaxaca cheese, poblanos, Chorizo, and a little more cheese. Place them back in the oven for another 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted and slightly crispy on the edges.

When cooled slightly, slice the cheese crisps and top with Crema Mexicana, Ranchero brand Queso Fresco, and scallions. Cheers!
