Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet, cook the chorizo over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, until it is no longer pink and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chorizo from the skillet and set it aside.
2
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until it is translucent and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
3
In a large bowl, combine the cooked chorizo, onion mixture, and shredded cheese. Mix well until the cheese is evenly distributed.
4
Transfer the cheese mixture to a clay pot or a cast-iron skillet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
