Salsa Borracha with Cotija Cheese

Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Slice the V&V Supremo® Sierra® Brand Cotija Cheese wedge in half lengthwise, then cut each wedge into small cubes and set aside.

2. 2

   Preheat a cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat for 2 minutes, then place the tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and onion in the skillet and roast each side approx. 4-6 minutes or until completely charred and soft. Take out the onion and garlic first, then jalapeño peppers and lastly the tomatoes as they take more time to char.

3. 3

   Place the charred vegetables into a blender or food processor, add beer, and salt. Blend until smooth. Once the mixture is well blended set aside.

4. 4

   Add 1 Tbsp. olive oil to a skillet and heat for 1 minute over medium-high heat. Pour salsa, bring to a boil and cook for 5-6 minutes. (Salsa needs to boil so that the alcohol can evaporate). Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Pour salsa into a bowl, mix in V&V Supremo® Sierra® Brand Cotija Cheese and cilantro. Serve and enjoy with your favorite chips!
