Grilled Guacamole

By Texaschef11

Ingredients

• 4 ripe avocados, cut in half, pit removed, left in skin
• 1 jalapeno
• 1/4 large red onion
• Olive oil, for brushing
• Juice of 1 large lime
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
• 1/3 cup freshly chopped cilantro
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Tortilla chips, for serving

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the grill to medium heat. Lightly brush the jalapeno, red onion, and each avocado half with olive oil.

Place the jalapeno, red onion, and avocado halves flesh side down on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes or until the avocados have black grill marks. Remove the vegetables from the grill and let them cool to room temperature.

Dice the red onion and jalapeno (seeded for less heat). Scoop out the avocado flesh and place in a medium bowl. Smash the avocados with a fork and stir in the lime juice, garlic, jalapeno, red onion, tomatoes, and cilantro. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla chips.
