Yield Makes 8 (hors d'oeuvres)

Number Of Ingredients 3

About 4 cups vegetable oil
2 pounds green plantains
Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer; an adjustable-blade slicer or Y-shaped vegetable peeler

Steps:

  • Heat 1 inch oil to 375°F in a 4- to 5-quarts heavy pot over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, cut ends from (unpeeled) plantains, then halve plantains crosswise. Cut a lengthwise slit through peel and discard peel. Cut plantains lengthwise into very thin slices (less than 1/16 inch thick) with slicer.
  • Fry plantains in batches of 10 to 12 slices, turning frequently, until golden, about 1 minute per batch. Drain on paper towels, immediately seasoning each batch with salt. Return oil to 375°F between batches.

I'm allergic to gluten, so I was happy to find this recipe for gluten-free plantain chips.

I love the fact that these chips are baked, not fried. It makes them a healthier snack option.

I'm not usually a big fan of plantain chips, but these were really good. They were crispy and had a great flavor.

I've tried making plantain chips before, but they always turned out too oily. This recipe was perfect - the chips were crispy and not greasy at all.

These plantain chips were a hit at my last party! They were so crispy and flavorful, and they disappeared in minutes.
