Platanos Maduros A La Parilla Recipe Video
Maduros (fried ripe plantains) are one of the most served side dishes in any Cuban home or restaurant. I love them in so many ways, but how do I make them healthy and eliminate the frying process? I grill them, yea!
Be sure to use very ripe plantains for this recipe. The skin should be completely black. The blacker the skin on the plantain, the sweater the plantain will be.
