GRILLED CHICKEN AND AVOCADO NAPOLEONS
Grilled Chicken and Avocado Napoleons. They are so simple, but completely delicious. I love the kick of cayenne in the dressing with the cool avocado and flaky, buttery, amazingly delish puff pastry. It's pretty much perfection.

Steps:
- Preheat the grill.
- Quarter the avocados and remove the seed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and brush with grapeseed oil. Grill the avocado slices over indirect heat, leaving undisturbed for the first 2 to 4 minutes or so to let the seasonings integrate into the surface and to allow the caramelization process to begin. Then, flip the avocados, remove from grill and let rest.
- Through the feed opening of a running blender add, 1 at a time, the vinegar, salt, black pepper, mustard, parsley, and garlic. Leaving the blender running add the olive oil through the feed opening in a slow thin stream.
- Serve the grilled avocado with enough of the dressing to coat and garnish with fresh parsley sprigs.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe avocados.
- To prevent the chicken from drying out, marinate it for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken in a grill pan over medium heat.
- To make the avocado crema, use a food processor or blender to combine the avocados, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste.
- To assemble the napoleons, start with a layer of chicken, then add a layer of avocado crema, then a layer of cherry tomatoes, and finally a layer of basil leaves.
- Serve the napoleons immediately, or chill them for later.
