Garlic & Spice Plantain Chips
Ingredients
2 plantains
2 TBS olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Preparation
1
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mats.
2
Cut off both ends of the plantains. Make a cut along the entire length of a plantain, and peel off the skin.
3
Slice each plantain into thin slices. Don’t worry if the slices are not perfect.
4
Place the plantains in a medium-sized bowl. Mix in all the other ingredients and stir until everything is well incorporated.
5
Place the plantain slices on the baking sheets in a single layer.
6
Bake for about 15-20 minutes, flipping them at about the 8- or 9-minute mark. Because of the uneven heat distribution in my oven, I also like to swap the baking sheets between the top and bottom racks.
7
Remove the chips from the oven when the edges turn into a nice golden brown color.
