THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I don’t think anyone was more excited than I when I heard the news that Chipotle released its secret Guacamole recipe. Chipotle’s guac has long been the best guacamole I have ever had. And, believe me, I have tried many. There is just something about it that sets it apart from all the rest.
After hearing the news, I immediately went out and bought all the ingredients. At first I was a little skeptical about the jalepeno but it gave the guac a really nice kick. The recipe was super easy to make and only took about 20 mins. The end result was totally worth it and tasted just like Chipotle’s guac. If I can make it taste delicious anyone can.
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe Hass avocados
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (chopped)
- 1/4 cup red onion (finely chopped)
- 1/2 jalapeno, including seeds (finely chopped)
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Cooking:
Choose the right avocado. It should feel squishy yet firm (like the palm of your hand), and be a nice dark green color on the inside.
Cut the avocado in half and the remove the pit (carefully!) Scoop the avocados and place in a medium bowl.
Toss and coat with lime juice. Add the salt and using a fork or potato masher, mash until a smooth consistency is achieved.
Fold in the remaining ingredients and mix well.
Taste the guacamole (over and over) and adjust seasoning if necessary.
