California-Style Crunchy Fried Avocado Taco Recipe image

Provided by Aida Mollenkamp

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Yield 8 to 12 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups unseasoned Panko breadcrumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 firm-ripe avocados
kosher salt
4 to 6 cups avocado oil
16 warm corn tortillas
Raw tomatillo salsa verde
4 handfuls shredded red cabbage
1 recipe chipotle crema
Handful cilantro leaves
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • Coat The Fried Avocado Tacos: Place the eggs, panko, and flour in three separate shallow medium bowls. Season avocado wedges with salt.  Working in batches, dredge each avocado wedge in flour, then shake off excess. Coat the floured avocado wedge in the egg, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. Finally, coat with the panko, pressing to help it adhere. Repeat to coat all the avocado wedges.
  • Fry The Avocado Tacos: Pour the oil into a large, heavy-bottomed deep skillet to a depth of 1 to 1 1/2 inches and heat over medium heat until a deep-fat thermometer registers 325°F.  Working in batches, fry the avocado wedges and turn once until they're golden brown and crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and season immediately with salt. Repeat to fry all the avocado wedges, then serve immediately. 
  • Serve The Tacos: To serve, make 8 stacks of 2 tortillas each. Divide salsa verde and cabbage between tortillas and top with avocados (you can do 1 to 2 wedges per taco). Drizzle with chipotle crema, if using, and top with a few cilantro leaves and serve immediately with lime wedges.
