Instructions

Prep
1
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Core, then finely chop jalapeño, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!)
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Add cheddar cheese and cornstarch to a medium bowl, then toss coat. Set aside.
Bake chips
2
  • Add tortilla chips, lime zest, 1/2 tbsp oil and 1/4 tsp Mexican Seasoning to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss gently to coat.
  • Bake tortilla chips in the middle of the oven until warmed through, 4-5 min.
Start queso
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a medium pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then jalapeños. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 1-2 min.
  • Add milk and remaining Mexican Seasoning. Cook, whisking often, until milk comes to a simmer, 1-2 min.
  • Once simmering, add cream cheese and cornstarch-coated cheddar. Cook, whisking continuously, until cheese melts and mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Finish queso
4
  • Remove the pot from heat. Add 1/2 tbsp lime juice, half the cilantro and half the tomatoes. Stir to combine.
  • Transfer queso to a serving bowl. Top with remaining tomatoes and remaining cilantro.
  • Serve spiced tortilla chips and lime wedges alongside.
