Ricos plátanos fritos

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt provides creaminess with fewer calories.

Peel the green plantains and cut them into thick slices.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the plantain slices until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove the fried plantains and drain on paper towels.

Flatten each slice with a plantain press or the bottom of a cup.

Return the flattened plantains to the hot oil and fry until crispy, about 2-3 minutes.

Remove from oil and drain again on paper towels.

Sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.

Serve with lime juice and garnish with cilantro.
