Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 white corn tortillas
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ground cumin
3 avocados, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 ears corn, grilled and kernels removed
1 jalapeno, finely chopped
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • For the tortilla chips: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush the tortillas with the oil on both sides and season one side with salt, pepper and cumin. Place on a baking sheet and bake until lightly golden brown, about 10 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut into eighths or break into chip-size pieces.
  • For the guacamole: Combine the avocados, corn, jalapeno, onions, cilantro, lime juice and creme fraiche in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the cumin scented tortilla chips.

Mildly seasoned. Great for parties, Superbowl, camping, picnics and more! If you can find mini bagel chips, use those. If not, buy the large bagel chips and break them up smaller. If you like the mix hotter, add as much cayenne as you can stand!
