Plantain Chips Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Plantains

   Peel the green plantains and slice them thinly, about 1/8 inch thick, using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer.

2. 2

   Heat the Oil

   In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).

3. 3

   Fry the Chips

   Carefully add the sliced plantains to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden and crispy, about 3-5 minutes per batch.

4. 4

   Drain and Season

   Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried plantain chips from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, paprika, and garlic powder to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Allow the chips to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade plantain chips as a snack!
