Description

Perfectly seasoned grilled avocado makes a rich, flavorsome, and smoky side dish in the summertime. Delicious as-is, on toast, or topped with salsa.

• 1/4 cup olive oil, or as needed

• 1 pinch ground chipotle pepper, or more to taste

• 1 pinch chili powder, or more to taste

• 4 avocados, halved and pitted

1 Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

2 Whisk olive oil, ground chipotle pepper, and chili powder together in a bowl; brush over the entire surface of the cut-side of each avocado.

3 Grill avocados, cut-side down, on the preheated grill until grill lines begin to form on the avocado flesh, about 5 minutes.
