Method
Preparation
Peel the Plantains
Use a sharp knife to cut off the ends of each plantain. Make a shallow lengthwise cut along the skin to make it easier to peel. Carefully remove the skin.
Slice the Plantains
Cut the peeled plantains diagonally into thick slices, about 1 inch thick.
Cooking
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it shimmers.
Fry the Plantains
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the sliced plantains to the skillet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Serving
Plate the Maduros
Transfer the fried plantains onto a serving platter. If desired, sprinkle with feta cheese and chopped cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
