Instructions

Step 1

Char chiles over a flame or under a broiler, turning to blacken all over. Place in a paper bag, close, and steam 15 minutes. Rub off skin and remove stems. Slice open, scrape out veins and seeds, and coarsely chop.

Step 2

Heat oil in saucepan over medium heat, add onions and garlic, and cook until translucent, about 20 minutes. Add chiles and cook another 10 minutes.

Step 3

Reduce heat to medium low, add cheddar, and cook, stirring constantly, until cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.
