3 ripe avocados

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

Kosher salt

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion

1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped seeded jalapeno (see Cook's Note)

Directions

Mash together the avocado, lemon juice, lime juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a mixing bowl until creamy. Fold in the cilantro, red onion and jalapeno with a spoon or spatula. Adjust the salt if needed.
The guacamole can be made up to 2 hours in advance. Store in an airtight container and smooth a sheet of plastic wrap on the surface without any air pockets. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
