Ingredients:
4 strips bacon |
2 ripe avocados |
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup) |
2 to 4 tablespoons drained jarred pickled jalapeno slices, chopped, plus 2 teaspoons brine |
1 plum tomato, seeded and chopped |
tortilla chips, for serving |
Directions:
1. Place the bacon in a large skillet and set over medium heat. Cook, turning, until crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined-plate to drain.
2. Meanwhile, halve and pit the avocados. Scoop the avocado into a medium bowl and add the lime juice, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mash with a fork until combined but still a bit chunky. Add the red onions, pickled jalapenos and brine and tomatoes, reserving a few pieces of tomato for garnish.
3. Crumble the bacon into the bowl, saving a spoonful for garnish, and stir together to combine. Garnish with the reserved tomato and bacon and the additional pickled jalapenos. Serve with tortilla chips.
