Ingredients:
1 avocado
1 tablespoon chipotle sauce (Tabasco or Louisiana)
1 tablespoon lime juice
¼ cup parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper
Method:
1. Slice the avocado in half and remove the stone. Prick all over with a fork, or cut criss-cross patterns with a knife. This allows the sauce to penetrate the flesh.
2. Pour the sauce over each half, then top with lime juice and salt and pepper.
3. In the cavity where the stone has been, put a fourth of the cheese on each avocado half. Place under the hot grill for 2 minutes.
4. Top with remaining cheese and grill (broil for Americans!) for another 2 minutes until completely melted and avocado warmed through.
Eat hot with a wedge of lime and chipotle sauce on the side!

(4,465 posts)3. Was it enough by itself or did you need a side dish with it?
I'm thinking of having a spinach salad with it. or something.

But a spinach salad sounds like a nice accompaniment.

(4,465 posts)8. yeah, you're probably right.
I'm going to throw some crumbled bacon on top after grilling, that'll be plenty. This could become a favorite of mine!

Sliced tomato if one is ripe enough.
On one of my new dinner plates!

(175,695 posts)11. Very well.
I just sauteed it with salt, pepper and chives.

(106,886 posts)12. Cool. Try thyme as well. Pork & thyme go together like tomato & basil in mi casa.
Love it when simple is really, really good.

Two pork chops to a package.

It's raining here, so a perfect time to make a little fish stew.
