Grilled avocado is soft and creamy with a rich, smoky taste. This recipe is great to make when you have some ripe avocados. Simply season them and grill them cut-side down until grill lines begin to form. Serve in their skins or cut up and use for a smoky guacamole.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • ¼ cup olive oil, or as needed

  • 1 pinch ground chipotle pepper, or more to taste

  • 1 pinch chili powder, or more to taste

  • 4 avocados, halved and pitted

Directions

  1. Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Whisk olive oil, ground chipotle pepper, and chili powder together in a bowl; brush over the entire surface of the cut-side of each avocado.

  3. Grill avocados, cut-side down, on the preheated grill until grill lines begin to form on the avocado flesh, about 5 minutes.

Cook’s Note

Use paprika instead of the chipotle and chili powder for less spicy.

Canola oil can be substituted for olive oil if desired.
