Ingredients

• 2 whole Avocados
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 whole Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 cups Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cups Sour cream
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh cilantro (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Carefully peel off the skin, then slice each half into 4 to 6 wedges.

Step 2

Set up a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Dredge each avocado slice in flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it thoroughly in the seasoned panko breadcrumbs. Place the coated slices on a plate and repeat until all slices are prepared.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, ensuring the oil is about 1 inch deep. Test the oil by dropping in a few breadcrumbs; if they sizzle, it’s ready.

Step 5

Fry the coated avocado slices in batches, about 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 6

To make the spicy lime cream, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, cayenne pepper, and cilantro in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and adjusted to taste.

Step 7

Serve the crispy fried avocado slices warm with the spicy lime cream as a dipping sauce.
