I love serving this with mexican food because it isn't your normal guacamole. It is super easy to make and taste so fresh.
Ingredients:
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, from about 3 limes
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice, from about 3 limes
2 teaspoons sugar
coarse salt
1 jalapeno chile, chopped (seeds and ribs removed, if desired)
1 cup lightly packed cilantro leaf
1/2 cup olive oil
4 avocados, about 8 ounces each, thinly sliced
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 the motor running, add oil in a steady stream through the feeder opening until incorporated.
3. Just before serving, slice avocados; arrange on a serving plate. Top with onion; drizzle with dressing.
