Ingredients

Units Scale

Avocado Mixture:

  • 2 large, ripe Hass avocados, halved and de-seeded
  • 1/4 medium red onion, finely diced (approx. 1/4 cup)
  • 2 jalapeño peppers, de-seeded as desired and finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 1 large, juicy lime or 1 small lemon, juiced (approx. 3 tablespoons)

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • heaping 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Smash the aromatics: Add the onion, jalapeno, and garlic to a resealable bag. Season with a pinch of kosher salt. Seal the bag and carefully smash down on the bag to release the natural juices of the vegetables.

  3. Serve: Transfer guacamole to a dish, garnish with cilantro, and serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • Store guacamole in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed onto the surface to prevent browning
