Ingredients
2 ripe avocados, like Hass, Bacon, Zutano, or Gwen (ripe means it indents easily with the firm press of a finger)
1/2 cup lightly packed cilantro leaves (stems discarded before measuring), finely chopped
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 scallions (green onions), finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle pepper (may be replaced with cayenne pepper)
8 flour tortillas
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Halve the avocados lengthwise, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of the skin.
- Add all the ingredients, except the tortillas, to a bowl. Blend with a fork until the mixture is just slightly lumpy.
- To make flame-like tortilla chips for garnish, cut flour tortillas into wavy triangles shapes, then bake on a cookie sheet until crisp, about 5 minutes.
