Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet.
1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp olive oil
Add onion and saute until softened and translucent.
½ sweet yellow onion
Add chopped garlic (if using) and saute with the onion for 1 minute.
1 clove garlic
Sprinkle the onion and garlic with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar, and cook for 1 minute.
1 tsp brown sugar
Take the onion & garlic off the heat to cool before mixing into the avocados.
3-4 avocados
Place all ingredients in a medium bowl.
¼ tsp red pepper flakes , ½ lime , ½ tsp fresh ground pepper, ½ tsp salt, ¼ cup fresh cilantro, 1-2 tsp tequila
Mash together gently, but leave the avocado a little chunky (at least that is how I love it).
