Chipotle Mexican Grill Guacamole Recipe

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ripe Hass avocados
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 4 tbsp red onion, finely diced
  • 2 tbsp fresh jalapeño, finely diced
  • 3 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Method
 

  1. Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a wide bowl. Add the 1 tsp kosher salt and 3 tbsp lime juice, then mash with a fork for 1 to 2 minutes, leaving some chunks intact.
  2. Add the 4 tbsp red onion, 2 tbsp jalapeño, and 3 tbsp cilantro. Fold in gently with about 6 to 8 turns of the fork, keeping the texture loose.
  3. Taste, adjust salt a pinch at a time, then spoon into a serving bowl, smooth toward the edges, and finish with a light squeeze of lime juice over the top.

Notes

This recipe is best eaten within a few hours of making it. If you need to prep it a little ahead, press plastic wrap flat against the surface before refrigerating. Red onion that is too sharp can be mellowed by a quick 5-minute soak in cold water before adding it.
