Plátanitos (Green Plantain Chips)

Step 1

Peel the plantains and using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice the plantains (the thinner the better).

Step 2

Fill a large skillet with enough vegetable oil to completely cover the plantain chips. Heat the oil to 360° F.

Step 3

Fry the plantains in the hot oil, turning occasionally until brown on both sides. Drain on paper towel to absorb excess oil. Sprinkle with salt to taste and transfer to a serving plate.
