Ingredients:

  • 4 unripe avocados, cut in half
  • Olive oil
  • 2 cups grape tomatoes, quartered
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 jalapeño, finely diced
  • 1/2 small red onion, finely diced (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp. agave nectar
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Hot sauce, to taste
  • 1 cup tortilla chips, crushed

Preparation:

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Using the tip of a small knife, trim a small piece of skin off the rounded side of each avocado half to secure them on your serving platter. Make a grid pattern on the flesh of each avocado half. Brush the inside of the avocado halves with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the avocado halves cut-side down on the grill and grill for 1.5 minutes. Rotate the avocado halves 90 degrees to create a crisscross grill mark and grill for another 1.5 minutes. Remove the avocados from the grill and place them grilled-side up on a large platter.
  3. Combine tomatoes, garlic, jalapeño, onion, cilantro, vinegar, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Set aside for assembly.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, agave nectar, lime juice, and hot sauce until creamy.

    Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture into each avocado half. Drizzle with cream. Sprinkle with chopped tortilla chipsServe immediately.
