- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
Start by cutting the avocados in half, removing the pits, and scooping the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Add the lime juice, cilantro leaves, and peeled garlic cloves to the blender.
Pour in the olive oil and water, which will help create a smooth texture.
Season the mixture with sea salt, ground black pepper, and add the diced jalapeño for a bit of heat.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt or lime juice if desired.
Transfer the avocado sauce to a serving dish. It can be served immediately or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
If storing, cover the surface of the sauce with a small piece of plastic wrap to prevent browning.
