Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the chicken pieces and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the marinated chicken pieces on a baking tray and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Tostones Preparation

    Prepare the Plantains

    Peel the green plantains and cut them into 1-inch thick slices.

  2. 4

    Fry the Plantains

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the plantain slices for about 3-4 minutes until golden. Remove from oil and flatten each piece with a flat surface.

  3. 5

    Second Frying

    Return the flattened plantains to the hot oil and fry again until crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.

French Fries Preparation

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips.
