Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 whole Roma tomatoes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 whole jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 whole garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl.
Add the fresh lime juice to the avocado to prevent browning and begin mashing with a fork or potato masher until slightly chunky but smooth to your desired consistency.
Dice the Roma tomatoes and finely chop the red onion. Add them to the bowl with the mashed avocado.
Chop the fresh cilantro leaves and finely dice the jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat or keep them for a spicier guacamole). Add them to the bowl.
Mince the garlic cloves finely and stir into the mixture.
Sprinkle the smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper into the bowl and mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Drizzle the olive oil over the top and gently fold into the guacamole to enhance the texture and bring out a subtle richness.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lime juice as needed.
Transfer the guacamole to a serving dish, garnish with a small sprig of cilantro or a sprinkle of smoked paprika if desired, and serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a topping for tacos and burgers.
