Time 30m

Yield 12 chimichangas

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

3 ripe avocados
1 large red onion, diced
2 serrano chiles, stems and seeds removed and chopped (use gloves to handle these)
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro leaves
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (1 or 2 limes depending on size)
3 ripe tomatoes, seeds removed and diced
3 cloves garlic, roughly diced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 large flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 liter vegetable or canola oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large red onion, sliced
3 pounds ground beef
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
4 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons celery salt
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Slice each avocado in half lengthwise, pop out seed and slip off the skin. Smash the avocado in a bowl and add onion, chiles, cilantro, lime juice, tomatoes, and garlic and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and let sit in refrigerator for a couple of hours to allow flavors to combine.
Lay out tortillas and sprinkle about 1/8 cup cheese on each. Begin heating vegetable oil to 350 degrees F in deep-fryer.
In a large skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat and saute onion until translucent. To this pan, add ground beef, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, celery salt, and salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Divide meat mixture into equal amounts in the pan. Then using a slotted spoon to leave excess liquid behind, transfer meat mixture to the center of each tortilla and fold the tortilla into a closed packet and secure using a wooden skewer or round toothpicks. Deep fry chimichangas until golden brown. (Alternatively, you can skip the deep frying step altogether by arranging the chimichanga packets on a baking sheet and bake until cheese melts and tortillas begin to firm up, about 5 to 10 minutes in a preheated 350 degrees F oven.) Remove skewers/toothpicks before serving.

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

3 medium avocados
1/3 cup red onion, minced
1/4 cup pickled jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
3 tablespoons cilantro, minced
1 teaspoon lime zest, grated
2 teaspoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large garlic cloves, minced
3 large eggs
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups dry breadcrumbs, unseasoned
vegetable oil, as needed for frying

Steps:

Peel and pit avocados. In a bowl, coarsely mash avocados; fold in onion, jalapenos, cilantro, lime zest and juice, salt, pepper, and garlic.
Line an 8-inch square baking pan with wax or parchment paper. Spoon avocado mixture into pan; spread into an even layer. Place another sheet of parchment on top; freeze until solid, 6 to 8 hours.
At least 30 mins before serving, in a small shallow bowl, beat eggs with 3 tablespoons water.
Remove avocado mixture to a cutting board; cut into small cubes. Dip each cube in flour, then egg wash, breadcrumbs, and again in wash and breadcrumbs. Arrange in a large baking pan; cover and return to the freezer until firm, 20 to 30 minutes. (You can leave these overnight in the freezer if you want to have the prep work done ahead of time.).
When you are ready to cook these, in a deep skillet or pot, heat oil to 350°F Fry frozen guacamole bites in batches until golden; drain on paper towels.
Serve immediately sprinkled, if desired, with kosher salt. :-).
