Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh corn kernels (from 1 ear of corn)
- 3 whole Avocados
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely diced
- 1 medium Tomato, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 1 small Jalapeño pepper, finely diced (optional)
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Add the fresh corn kernels to the skillet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the corn for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork or potato masher until creamy but slightly chunky.
Add the lime juice to the mashed avocado and mix to combine. This will help prevent browning and add a zesty flavor.
Stir in the finely diced red onion, tomato, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, and diced jalapeño (if using). Mix until evenly distributed.
Fold in the roasted corn kernels and season the guacamole with salt and black pepper to taste.
Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl and garnish with additional cilantro or a sprinkle of roasted corn if desired.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a topping for tacos and other dishes.
