Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Poblano ranch dressing:
1 poblano chile
2 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
Tacos:
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 avocado, halved, pitted, cut into 8 wedges
Kosher salt
Vegetable oil (for frying; about 4 cups)
1 15-ounce can refried beans, warmed
8 corn tortillas
2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
1 cup prepared pico de gallo
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack
Special Equipment
A deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • For poblano ranch dressing:
  • Char chile over a gas flame, turning occasionally, until skin is blackened; transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 15 minutes. Peel, seed, and finely chop. Whisk chile, scallions, buttermilk, sour cream, and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  • For tacos:
  • Place eggs, panko, and flour in 3 separate shallow medium bowls. Season avocado with salt. Working in batches, dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Coat with egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Coat with panko, pressing to adhere.
  • Pour oil into a large deep skillet to a depth of 1 1/2" and heat until thermometer registers 350°. Working in batches, fry avocado, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Spread beans on tortillas and top with fried avocado, lettuce, pico de gallo, and cheese. Serve with dressing alongside.

These tacos are a great way to change up your taco night routine. They're also a great way to use up leftover avocado.

These tacos are a must-try for avocado lovers! The avocado is crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.

Overall, these tacos were a good experience. I would definitely make them again, but I would make a few changes to the recipe.

I loved the idea of these tacos, but I found the avocado to be a bit overcooked. I would cook it for less time next time.

The tacos were good, but I found the breading to be a bit bland. I would add some more spices next time.

These tacos were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would try baking the avocado next time.
