ASPARAGUS GUACAMOLE AND CHIPS



Asparagus Guacamole and Chips image

Categories     Food Processor     Onion     Tomato     Cocktail Party     Super Bowl     Low Fat     Vegetarian     Yogurt     Asparagus     Avocado     Self

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium Anaheim chile (or for extra heat, 1 serrano chile)
1 tsp olive oil
5 or 6 fresh asparagus spears, ends trimmed
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
2 medium avocados, cut into cubes (about 2 cups)
1 plum tomato, seeded and diced
1 tbsp chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tbsp fresh lime juice (or more to taste)
Dash garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Baked tortilla chips

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Wearing rubber gloves to protect your skin, rub chile with oil; broil 5 minutes, turning with tongs so all sides get charred. Transfer to a plastic bag, seal and set aside to steam 10 minutes. Remove stem, skin and seeds from chile and dice. Set aside. (Remove gloves only when you are finished handling the chile.) Fill medium sauté pan halfway with water and bring to a boil. Prepare a medium-sized bowl of ice water. Place asparagus spears into boiling water 3 to 4 minutes or until just tender. Remove and plunge spears into ice water to halt cooking and preserve color. When cool, remove, dry thoroughly and chop into 1-inch pieces. Transfer to blender or food processor, add yogurt and avocado and process until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl and stir in remaining ingredients (except chips). Serve with baked tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados for the guacamole. They should be slightly soft to the touch and have a deep green color.
  • Use fresh asparagus for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh asparagus, you can use frozen asparagus that has been thawed and drained.
  • Toast the tortilla chips before serving for a crispy texture.
  • Serve the guacamole and asparagus chips with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, or cheese.

Conclusion:

Asparagus guacamole and chips is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for parties or potlucks, and it's also a great way to use up leftover asparagus. The guacamole is creamy and flavorful, and the asparagus chips are crispy and addictive. This recipe is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
