​It just happened. It was nearly time for dinner, and I had been working so much that I forgot to cook something. I remembered mom had sent me a green 
plantain that was ​beginning to ripen up, so I cut it open and made myself a quick and savory plant-based appetizer. We are calling this one, Plátanos (Plantains) a la Caribbean. 

Find the simple recipe below. 

Ingredients 
  • One large plantain, cut into chunks
  • 1/4 Cup chopped red onions 
  • 1/4 Cup chopped green bell peppers
  • 1 Tbsp chopped roasted red bell peppers
  • 3 Garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1/4 Cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 Cup water
  • 1/3 Tsp paprika
  • Salt to taste 
  • 1/2 Lime (or more to taste)

*You'll need a medium skillet for this one. 
Process
  • ​Heat the skillet at medium heat 
  • Toss onions, garlic, peppers into the skillet 
  • Add vinegar, moving ingredients while they bathe in hot vinegar
  • Add plantain chunks and stir
  • Now season with paprika and salt
  • Add water 
  • Lower heat and let the water evaporate (this should only take a few minutes)
  • Once the water has evaporated, serve immediately into a serving platter
  • Squeeze fresh lime 
Ready to eat! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
