This is my most requested recipe to bring to get-togethers and there's always someone who hasn't had them who asks for the recipe. You can make it days ahead of time and have it out of the oven in just a few minutes when you need it. Add more chipotle peppers if you like it spicier. This recipe makes a lot, but it actually freezes well. I usually freeze half of it and have it another time. If you're making it for a party, though, bring it all because it will be gone!

Ingredients

  • Tortilla chips: 1 pack (14.5 ounce pack, to taste)
  • Monterey Jack cheese: 2 pound (shredded)
  • ½ pounds large peeled and deveined cooked shrimp, tails removed and shrimp quartered: 1 piece
  • mayonnaise: 1 cup
  • chipotle peppers in adobo sauce: 4 piece (chopped)
  • fresh cilantro: 0.5 cup (chopped)
  • minced onion (such as McCormick® Coarse Grind Blend White and Green Onions): 0.25 cup (dried)
  • ½ tablespoons ground cumin: 1 piece
  • ground black pepper: 0.25 tsp
