Jacqueline Potato Skins With Guacamole Recipe
Ingredients:
- Preparation - 15 minutes, cooking time - 20 minutes
- 2 baked potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Coarse sea salt
- For the Guacamole:
- 1 large, ripe avocado, halved and stoned
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 red chili, seeded and chopped
- 2 tbsp chopped cilantro
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and ground black pepper
Directions:
- Bake the potatoes. Raise the oven temperature to 425 F. Halve the potatoes and scoop out the flesh to leave a 1/4 inch thick shell. Cut each half into 4 strips, place in a bowl and toss with the oil.
- Arrange the strips, skin-side down, on a sturdy baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and bake for 20 minutes or until the strips are crisp and golden brown.
- Make the guacamole: place the avocado flesh in a bowl and mash with a fork until fairly smooth.
- Stir in the garlic, chili, and cilantro.
- Add lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a bowl and serve with the crispy skins.
