Method

1. Combine the Cheeses
In a medium bowl, mix the shredded Muenster and Pepper Jack cheeses with the softened cream cheese until smooth and well blended.

2. Fold in the Chile Verde
Add the chopped Hatch green chiles and any desired add-ins (chorizo, bacon, jalapeño). Stir gently until evenly distributed.

3. Heat the Skillet
Warm a cast-iron skillet over medium heat on the stovetop, or preheat the oven’s broiler if finishing under the broiler.

4. Melt the Cheese
Add the cheese-chile mixture to the skillet. Stir occasionally for 5–7 minutes, until fully melted and bubbling.

5. Broil for Extra Golden Melt (Optional)
If desired, transfer the skillet to the oven’s broiler for 2–3 minutes, watching closely, until the top is golden and bubbly.

6. Serve Immediately
Carefully remove the skillet and place it on a heat-safe surface. Serve piping hot with warmed tortillas, tostadas, or tortilla chips.
