- 2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
- ½ cup minced onion
- 2 tbsp. minced jalapeno
- 1 tbsp. minced garlic
- ¼ cup chopped red bell pepper
- 2 tbsp. chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced up
- ½ cup pale ale or other beer
- 1 cup each shredded Monterey Jack cheese and Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 2 tsp. cornstarch
- ¼ tsp. paprika
In a skillet, heat the olive oil on medium heat and cook the onion, jalapeno, garlic and red pepper. Cook until the vegetables are crisp tender. Stir in the chipotles. Cover and keep warm while you make the cheese fondue.
In a three-quart saucepan, bring the beer to a boil. As the beer is heating, toss the cheeses with the cornstarch. Then, turn the heat to low, and slowly whisk in the cheese until it melts completely. Add the paprika. Mix the melted cheese into the vegetables and pour it into a serving bowl. You can make this ahead of time and heat it up in the microwave.
