Ingredients for servings

    Baked Plantain Chips

  • 2 green plantains unripe

  • 3 tablespoon oil

  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet.

  • Slice the ends off the green plantains and use a knife to cut slits down the sides of the peel. This will allow you to pull off the skin (it is hard to remove).

  • Slice the plantains into 1/8-inch rounds (thinner slices will yield crispier chips). Place them on the prepared baking sheet, crowding them close but not overlapping.

  • Drizzle the additional oil over the plantain slices, and sprinkle salt on top.

  • Bake the plantain chips for 23–25 minutes, or until browned and dry.

  • Allow the plantain chips to cool for 20 minutes before enjoying them.

  • To store, let chips cool for at least 1 hour before sealing them in an airtight container. If you seal them before cooled, they will lose their crispiness. They will last 5–6 days
