Charred Avocado Guacamole
Charring your ingredients when you make guacamole takes this mashed avocado chip dip up a notch. So here's how to toss your avocados, tomatillos, pobablano chili, and onions into the skillet before mashing them together.
Ingredients
- 2 avocados
- 2 tomatillos
- 1 Poblano chili
- ¼ white onion
- ½ lime
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Cut avocados in half and remove pit. Cut tomatillos in half lengthwise. Slice onion to yield about 1/2 cup of sliced white onions.
- Heat a skillet to medium high heat and place the vegetables in them. Place the avocados and tomatillos flat side down. Heat until the vegetables are slightly charred than remove to a cutting board using tongs. Cut diagonals and use a spoon to remove the chunks and place them in the bowl. Remove the stem and seeds from the Poblano chili. Finely chop the chili, onions and tomatillos and add them to the bowl.
- Add about a half-lime's worth of lime juice, along with salt, pepper and chili powder to taste. Use a potato masher or a fork to combine the ingredients.
- Serve with tortilla or pita chips.
