Caribbean Style Plantain Chips with Cocktail Dip

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel the green plantains by cutting off the ends and making a shallow slit along the length of each plantain. Carefully remove the peel with your fingers or a knife.

2. 2

   Slice the plantains into very thin rounds using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife for even chips.

3. 3

   Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

4. 4

   Fry the plantain slices in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden and crispy, stirring occasionally for even cooking.

5. 5

   Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle the chopped fresh thyme evenly over the chips.

6. 6

   Serve the plantain chips warm or at room temperature with the Caribbean cocktail sauce on the side for dipping.
