Heat the oil in a 10" cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo to the pan and cook, crumbling with the back of a wooden spoon, for 4-5 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Add the diced onion, jalapeno, and bell pepper to the skillet and cook 3-4 minutes until softened. Add in the chili powder and sea salt. Cook 30 seconds longer then remove from the heat.
Add about ⅓ of the cheese to the skillet along with half of the chorizo. Stir to combine. Top with the remaining cheese and the rest of the chorizo in the middle.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top with pico and cilantro and serve.
