Oh my goodness, this is a great recipe. I always make it with my SUPER, IMPRESS MY FRIENDS dinner combination. Everyone raves afterward. The more the juices of each dish mixes, the better. Once on a vacation I didn't have a blender so I minced everything and it really works in a pinch. This is a Martha Stewart recipe. Ingredients:
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced |
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice |
1/4 cup more freshly squeezed lime juice (about 3 limes total) |
2 teaspoons sugar |
coarse salt |
1 medium jalapeno chile (seeds and ribs removed for less heat, if desired) |
1 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro |
1/2 cup olive oil |
4 medium avocados (about 8 ounces each) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine onion with 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt; toss to combine.Let lime-marinated onion sit at room temperature until it softens and brightens in color, about 1 hour (up to 1 day covered and refrigerated).
2. Make dressing: In a blender, combine remaining 1/4 cup lime juice, jalapeno, cilantro, and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar: season generously with salt. Blend until smooth. With motor running, add oil in a steady stream through the feeder opening until incorporated.
3. Just before serving, slice avocados; arrange on a serving platter. Top with onion; drizzle with dressing.
