Ingredients

  • 3 large ripe avocados
  • 6 pickled jalapeño slices, diced
  • 5 fresh chopped basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
  • juice of 1 lime
  • splash pickled jalapeño juice
  • salt to taste
  • fresh jalapeño slices or cilantro for garnish (optional)
  • good quality tortilla chips for serving

Instructions

  1. Place all 3 avocados in a large bowl and roughly mash them up (it should be slightly chunky still).  Stir in the diced pickled jalapeños, basil, cilantro, lime juice and add a splash of the pickled jalapeño juice and salt to taste.  

  2. Place the reserved avocado pit in the bottom of a serving bowl, scoop the guacamole on top, and garnish with extra cilantro or fresh sliced jalapeños for garnish if desired.  Serve with a basket of tortilla chips.
