Classic Maduros
Ingredients
- ½ cup canola oil
- 2 large black DOLE® Plantains, peeled and cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Directions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat 2 minutes or until oil sizzles rapidly when a plantain is added; in batches, if necessary, carefully add plantains and cook 4 minutes or until starting to brown, turning once. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 5 minutes or until insides are tender and outsides are golden brown, turning occasionally. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; sprinkle with salt. Makes about 16 maduros.
