Ingredients
- 4 hass avocados (about 7 oz. each), preferably organic
- 1 serrano chile, stemmed and minced
- 1 small clove garlic, minced (optional)
- 2 tbsp. finely chopped white onion
- 2 tbsp. finely chopped seeded tomato
- 2 tbsp. chopped cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 2 –3 tsp. fresh lime juice, plus 1 lime cut into wedges
- 1/2 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
- 1 bag good-quality tortilla chips
Preparation
Step 1
1. In a medium bowl, mash the avocado flesh with a fork until somewhat chunky (not smooth). One at a time, gently stir in the chile, garlic, onion, tomato, cilantro, lime juice and salt. Cover with plastic wrap touching the surface and let sit for about 2 hours to allow the flavors to develop.
2. Season with salt to taste (remember that tortilla chips are salty). Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro and serve with lime wedges and tortilla chips
