How to Make Avocado Bacon Boats
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Crumble and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1/4 cup diced tomatoes, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Cut 3 ripe avocados in half lengthwise, remove pits, and gently scoop out the pulp, leaving about 1/8 inch of avocado flesh in the shells. Dice the avocado pulp and add it to the bowl with the other ingredients.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon.
- Fill each avocado shell generously with the bacon and avocado mixture.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra bacon crumbles and a sprinkle of fresh herbs (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
