Preparation
For poblano ranch dressing:
Step 1
Char chile over a gas flame, turning occasionally, until skin is blackened; transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 15 minutes. Peel, seed, and finely chop. Whisk chile, scallions, buttermilk, sour cream, and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
For tacos:
Step 2
Place eggs, panko, and flour in 3 separate shallow medium bowls. Season avocado with salt. Working in batches, dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Coat with egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Coat with panko, pressing to adhere.
Step 3
Pour oil into a large deep skillet to a depth of 1 1/2" and heat until thermometer registers 350°. Working in batches, fry avocado, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to drain.
Step 4
Spread beans on tortillas and top with fried avocado, lettuce, pico de gallo, and cheese. Serve with dressing alongside.
