Can I make this avocado toast less spicy?

To reduce the heat, you can use fewer serrano pepper slices or omit them entirely. Bell peppers could be a mild alternative for crunch.

What kind of bread is best for this recipe?

The recipe specifies gluten-free bread, toasted in a pan with olive oil until both sides are browned, providing a crispy base for the toppings.

What is chimichurri sauce and where can I find it?

Chimichurri sauce is an herbaceous, tangy condiment often made with parsley, garlic, vinegar, and olive oil. The recipe links to a specific chimichurri recipe on One Green Planet.

How should I store leftover Serrano Pepper Avocado Toast?

Avocado toast is best enjoyed fresh, as the avocado can brown and the toast can become soggy when stored. If you have leftover components, store them separately and assemble just before serving.

How to Prepare Serrano Pepper Avocado Toast [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush corn ears with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil each. Place on the grill and lower heat to medium. Cook, turning regularly, until there are grill marks on all sides - approximately 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside for 3-5 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
Using a sharp knife, cut kernels off of the cob.
Add remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil to a pan over medium heat. Place bread slices in the pan and toast until both sides of each slice is browned.
To assemble, top each slice of toast with 1/2 an avocado, corn kernels, serrano pepper slices and cilantro. Drizzle with chimichurri sauce and top with salt and pepper.
