CUT

1

Cut the avocados in half. Remove the pit and discard. Scoop the avocado out of its skin and transfer to a medium bowl.

MASH

2

Using a fork or a pastry blender, mash up the avocado. It should be smooth and creamy with a few small chunks throughout for texture.

ADD

3

Add the lime juice, garlic, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and chipotle powder. Stir to combine. Taste, and add salt and pepper according to your preferences.

REFRIGERATE

4

Cover with plastic wrap, pressing the plastic to the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
