How to Make Bananas Managua
- In a small, shallow bowl, pour the orange juice.
- In another small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Melt the butter in a small frying pan over medium heat.
- Dip each banana slice into the orange juice, then dredge in the brown sugar mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- Add the coated banana slices to the frying pan in a single layer. Cook until lightly browned and glazed on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the cooked bananas to 2 small dessert dishes.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the remaining banana slices.
- Once all bananas are cooked, add the lime juice and any remaining orange juice and brown sugar mixture to the pan.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens into a syrupy consistency, about 1-2 minutes.
- Pour the syrup evenly over the bananas in the dessert dishes.
- Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your taste of Nicaragua!
