Lime Cilantro Guacamole is a zesty and refreshing twist on the classic Mexican dip. This vibrant dish originated in Mexico, where the combination of creamy avocados, tangy lime, and fresh cilantro creates a burst of flavor. Renowned chefs like Rick Bayless and Pati Jinich have popularized this dish, infusing it with their own unique flair. The best versions of this guacamole can be found in authentic Mexican restaurants across regions like Oaxaca and Jalisco. The key to perfecting this dish lies in using ripe avocados, freshly squeezed lime juice, and a generous amount of chopped cilantro. For a unique twist, some chefs add diced tomatoes or a hint of spicy jalapeño for an extra kick.
