Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Plantains
Peel the green plantains and cut them into chunks. In a large pot, boil the plantain chunks in salted water for about 15-20 minutes or until soft. Drain, and mash the plantains until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Make the Creole Sauce
Add the tomato sauce, cumin, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Mix well and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the shrimp are cooked through and the flavors meld together.
Assemble the Mofonguitos
In a serving dish, create small mounds of the mashed plantains. Top each mound with the seafood and chicken mixture. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
