Island Spice Plantain Chips
Welcome to the tropics, minus the packing and time it takes to travel there! These quickly become oh so crispy + crunchy. Their flavorful, unique kick pairs indescribably well with a creamy, buffalo ranch. Perfect for a fun, few-ingredient snack, appetizer, or side dish. Make five minutes to prepare, and you’re ready to go just 20 minutes later!
Ingredients:
1 plantain, ripe
1/2 tbsp pepper, freshly ground
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp nutmeg
avocado oil, for coating
buffalo ranch, for dipping (optional)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the plantain into about 1/2 inch slices and transfer to the prepared pan as you go.
Lightly drizzle or spray each piece with avocado oil.
Evenly distribute each spice, one by one, on both sides of the plantain pieces.
Cook for 20-22 minutes or until a desired crispness is reached.
Let cool for a few minutes then enjoy with buffalo ranch or eat plain!
