Roasted Garlic Guacamole

1 head garlic
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 serrano pepper
4 hass avocadoes, halved, pitted, peeled
juice of 1 lime
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
tortilla chips

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice the top off the head of garlic. Place the garlic on a sheet a aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap the garlic tightly. Roast for 30 minutes, depending on size of garlic, until soft and golden brown. Let cool. Squeeze the peel of each clove to release the garlic.

In food processor, combine garlic, serrano, avocados, lime juice, salt and pepper. Pulse until chunky. Transfer to bowl and stir in cilantro. Serve with tortilla chips.
