Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside.
On a cutting board, stack 3 tortillas and using a sharp knife, cut into 8 wedges (like a pie). Repeat with remaining tortillas. Separate any that may stick together.
Place on baking sheet, evenly spaced.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden.
In a medium saucepan combine onions, peas, water, lemon juice, guacamole seasoning, and garlic. Cook for 10 minutes until ingredients are soft.
Remove from heat and let cool.
Pour cooled pea mixture into a large bowl.
Add avocado and mash with a fork or potato masher. Strain tomatoes and add to bowl with green chiles.
Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Chili can be paired with Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. You could try Poema Cavan Extra Dry. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.
Poema Cava Extra Dry
Shows crisp aromas of green apples, chalk and spring flowers, and fresh, tangy fruit flavors in the mouth with a trace of sweetness that is well balanced by acidity.A great aperitif, this wine also pairs with starters and savory tarts.
