Ingredients
Guacamole
- ¼ - ½ jalapeno
- ¼ Cup packed cilantro leaves
- 1/16 red onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 medium avocados
- 8 cherry tomatoes diced
- juice from ½ lime
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp pepper
Chili Spiced Oil
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ⅛ teaspoon paprika
Toppings
- 3 Tablespoons Pickled Shallots
- 1 ½ tsp cotija cheese
- 3 Tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds
Instructions
- Make Guacamole: Place jalapeno, cilantro, red onion, and garlic clove in a mini food processer and process until finely chopped. Scrape into a medium mixing bowl.
- Add all remaining Guacamole ingredients to the bowl and gently toss to evenly disperse ingredients.
- Make Chili Spiced Oil: Add Chili Spiced Oil ingredients to small bowl and stir to blend.
- To serve: On an individual small plate, spread ½ Tablespoon Chili Spiced Oil. Scoop ⅙ of the Guacamole on top of oil. Sprinkle with cotija and pumpkin seeds. Add pickled shallots to the top and drizzle with a tiny amount of the oil. Repeat for remaining servings. Serve with chips of veggies.
Notes
- Serve with tortilla chips (see below for my favorite brand) and/or a variety of raw vegetables.
- I like McEvoy Ranch jalapeño olive oil in the chili spiced oil for a little more kick.
- Adjust jalapeño in the guacamole to your personal spice preference.
