Scale
Ingredients
- 3 ripe avocados
- 1/4 cup diced yellow onion (red onion works too)
- 1 roma tomato, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lime, juiced (about 2 tablespoons)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or flaky sea salt (more or less to taste)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro (leaves and stems)
- 1 jalapeno pepper, finely diced
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocados: Peel the avocados and place the flesh into a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash the avocado, leaving some chunks for texture.
- Add Remaining Ingredients: Pour in the lime juice, then add diced onion, tomatoes, minced garlic, salt, chopped cilantro, and finely diced jalapeno. Mix gently to combine, maintaining a mixture of creamy and chunky consistency.
- Adjust Seasoning and Serve: Taste the guacamole and adjust salt, lime juice, or cilantro as needed to suit your preference. Garnish with additional cilantro and serve immediately with tortilla chips.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor; they should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
- If you like it spicier, include the jalapeno seeds; otherwise, remove them for milder heat.
- To keep guacamole from browning, cover tightly with plastic wrap directly on the surface before refrigerating.
- Feel free to add chopped fresh tomatoes or a pinch of cumin for variation.
