Ingredients
  • 2 green (unripe) plantains
  • 3-4 tablespoons rice bran oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and grease the top of the paper or baking mat with a tablespoon of rice bran oil.
  2. Slice the ends off the green plantains and use a knife to cut slits down the sides of the peel. This will allow you to pull off the skin (it is hard to remove).
  3. Slice the plantains into ⅛" rounds (thinner slices will yield crispier chips). Place them on the prepared baking sheet, crowding them close but not overlapping.
  4. Drizzle the additional oil over the plantain slices, and sprinkle salt overtop.
  5. Bake the plantain chips for 23-25 minutes, or until browned and dry.
  6. Allow the plantain chips to cool for 20 minutes before enjoying them.
Notes
These chips will lose their crispiness if you seal them in an airtight container before they are fully cool. Let the extra chips cool for 1 hour from baking before moving them into an airtight container at room temperature. Chips last 5-6 days.
