How to Make Sauteed Ripe Plantains
- Peel the ripe plantains and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Ensure the plantains are firm and have a sweet aroma.
- Melt the butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the plantain slices to the skillet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and caramelized, flipping halfway through.
- If desired, sprinkle with brown sugar during the last minute of cooking, stirring gently to coat the plantains.
- Remove from heat and stir in hot sauce (optional).
- Serve immediately as a delicious side dish or dessert. Enjoy!
