Pastelón (Sweet Plantain Lasagna)

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 2

Peel the plantains like you would a banana, then slice each one into 5-6 pieces.

Step 3

Brush with Mazola corn oil, then air fry at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or until they're caramelized and cooked through. Flatten the cooked plantains with the underside of a plate.

Step 4

Grease a 9" x 9" baking dish with corn oil and cover the bottom of the pan with slices of the cooked sweet plantain. Add half of the turkey picadillo, and 1/4 of the mozzarella cheese.

Step 5

Repeat with another layer of plantains, meat, and cheese (reserve the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese). Top with a final layer of plantains.

Step 6

Top with the remaining cheese, then pour the beaten eggs all over the top. Tip the pan back and forth to distribute the eggs.

Step 7

Bake the pastelon at 375 degrees F for 20-30 minutes, until the egg is set and the top of the pastelón is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 8

Allow the pastelon to cool for 15 minutes before cutting into it and serving it up!
