Cooking instruction summary:
Heat oil in a very large (12-inch) skillet over medium high heat. Add the tomato, onion, and chiles, and cook, stirring nearly constantly, until the onions begin to soften and brown, about 7 minutes. Add the tequila and cook quickly, stirring, until nearly reduced to a glaze. (If you tip the pan toward and open gas flame, it will ignite.)Reduce the heat to medium-low, sprinkle the cheese evenly over the vegetables and stir slowly and constantly until just melted – too long over the heat and the cheese will become tough, oily and stringy.Scoop into a warm dish, sprinkle with the cilantro and serve right away with tortillas for making soft tacos. You may want a little salsa too.
