Ingredients
3 large ripe avocados
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 small jalapeño, seeds removed and minced
Instructions
Slice the avocados in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pits.
Scoop the avocado flesh into a medium mixing bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches your desired chunky or smooth consistency.
Immediately stir in the fresh lime juice to brightened the flavor and prevent browning.
Fold in the diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and minced jalapeño.
Season with sea salt to taste and stir gently until well combined.
Notes
Ensure avocados are ripe by pressing the stem end; if it gives slightly to pressure, it is ready. If you prefer a milder dip, ensure all seeds are removed from the jalapeño. Store with plastic wrap pressed directly against the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning.
