Avocado Sauce is a creamy, green, 2-minute salsa made with ripe avocados and serrano peppers. It’s got just the right amount of kick for tacos, tostadas, beans, and burrito bowls.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
To roast the pepper:
2
Turn the flame of a gas stove to HIGH. Using tongs, place serrano chile directly in or over the flame until the skin is charred and blistered but not ash white, turning occasionally, about 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes. Or, roast over a very hot charcoal or gas grill for 3 to ⏱️ 5 minutes.
3
Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap (or add to a plastic bag and zip or tie closed). Let stand until the skin starts to loosen and the pepper is cool enough to handle, about ⏱️ 10 minutes.
4
Wearing gloves or using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, carefully rub off and discard the blackened skin. Discard the stem. For more spice, keep the seeds (or discard them).
5
To make the sauce:
6
To a blender, add water, lime juice, avocados, and roasted serrano chile. Blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt (I like 1 teaspoon). Thin with additional water if the sauce seems too thick.
