Method

  1. 01
    In a bowl, mash the avocados with lime juice, lime zest, and cilantro. Season with a pinch of salt to taste.
  2. 02
    In another bowl, mix the sour cream with chopped chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice, and salt. Stir until well combined.
  3. 03
    Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
  4. 04
    Place a tortilla in the skillet and top with a heaping spoonful of the avocado mixture. Use a spatula to press down and smash the filling evenly over the tortilla.
  5. 05
    Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese over the smashed avocado and cover with a second tortilla.
  6. 06
    Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom tortilla is crispy and cheese starts to melt. Carefully flip and cook the other side until crispy.
  7. 07
    Repeat with remaining tortillas and avocado mixture.
  8. 08
    Drizzle the spicy chipotle sauce over the tacos before serving.
