Description

Ingredients

• 1½ lbs very ripe plantains (about two large)
• ½ c neutral tasting oil (like avocado)*

Directions

• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet.
• Peel the plantains by trimming the ends, slicing just through the skin down one side, and removing the peel. Cut into angled slices approximately 1-1½ thick.
• Place the plantains into your skillet close together, but not touching, and cook for about two minutes per side, until they are soft.
• Reduce the heat to medium low, and cook an additional 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until uniformly golden brown. The color comes from the sugar caramelizing as the plantains cook.
• Place on a paper-towel lined plate briefly to drain and serve immediately.
