Ingredients
2 cups oil for frying, or as needed
2 large plantains
Directions
Preheat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat.
Peel plantains. Cut in half crosswise, then cut each half lengthwise into thin pieces.
Working in batches, fry plantains in the hot oil until browned and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
