Ghost Pepper Guacamole Recipe

We know you love a good classic guacamole recipe, but when you truly want an incendiary experience with your guac, you have to include the massively spicy ghost pepper. While there aren’t too many variations of the traditional Mexican guacamole salsa, we’re pretty sure you won’t find many like this in restaurants.

Ingredients

  • 1 ghost pepper seeded and minced
  • 4 avocados pitted, peeled, and chopped
  • 12 cherry tomatoes chopped and seeded
  • 1 small red onion minced
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • To a food processor, add onion, ghost peppers, salt to taste and 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro. Pulse until juicy. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • Add avocado and mash, ensuring avocado is slightly chunky.
  • Add tomatoes and remaining cilantro. Stir well.
  • Serve immediately!

Notes

Sour cream will make for an even creamier guacamole, but it will dilute the heat, though we don’t think you need to worry about that, considering the ghost pepper is pretty darned hot.
