Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Place the round sourdough loaf on a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, make deep cuts in a crisscross pattern across the top of the bread, being careful not to slice all the way through the bottom crust.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro, salt, and black pepper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded Monterey Jack cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green chiles.
Gently separate the bread sections with your fingers and drizzle the garlic butter mixture into the crevices. Stuff the cheese and green chile mixture generously into the slits, ensuring even distribution.
Wrap the assembled loaf tightly in aluminum foil and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, open the foil to expose the top of the loaf and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
Carefully remove the loaf from the oven and transfer it to a serving platter. Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with extra chopped cilantro, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy!
