Ingredients

  1. Green plantains (as many as you like)
  2. Oil
  3. Adobo, garlic powder, salt

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut ends off plantain, add oil to a pan and put on medium- medium high.

  2. 2

    Cut along slotted indents found naturally in the plantain. Remove all the skin.

  3. 3

    Cut "coins" diagonally along plantain. Don't cut too thin.

  4. 4

    Check to make sure oil is ready by splashing some water into pan, if it bubbles you're ready! Place plantain slices into oil. About 35-45 seconds then flip over, cook 35-45 seconds on other side (light brown). Use a slotted spatula so oil can drip through.

  5. 5

    Remove and place on a plate with paper towel over it.

  6. 6

    If you don't have a plantain masher, grab a coffee cup. Use bottom of cup and smash plantain.

    Put back in frying pan for about 45-55 seconds on each side.

  8. 8

    Remove plantains from oil & put on a new paper towel. Sprinkle with salt, adobo & garlic powder. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
