Ingredients
- 1 small clove garlic smashed
- 1-2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce plus 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 ripe haas avocados
- ¼ small white onion minced
- ½ lime juiced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Grind the garlic and the chipotle chiles in adobo sauce together until they make a fine paste.
- Add in the salt, avocados, and onion and mash until the avocados are mostly pureed but still a bit chunky.
- Mix in the lime juice and cilantro and adjust the salt if desired. Serve immediately with plenty of tortilla chips.
Notes
- Make it as smooth or as chunky as you’d like. For really chunky guac, cube the avocado before adding it, and mash just enough to combine the ingredients.
- Chipotle chiles can be pretty spicy, so adjust the amount according to your tolerance. Start with ½ to one whole chilie to start and add more after tasting. They quickly take this guac from mild to ultra-spicy if you’re not careful.
