Preparation
Step 1
Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
Trim ends from plantains, then cut a slit down one side. Peel plantains, beginning at the slit. Slice crosswise into 12 pieces, each about 1/2-inch thick. Place in a large bowl.
Toss plantain slices with oil and 1/8 tsp of the salt. Transfer to a large nonstick baking sheet (or lined with nonstick foil), laying slices flat.
Bake plantain slices for 15 minutes. Remove pan from oven. Place a few slices on cutting board, and press gently with the bottom of a flat glass. Turn over (bottoms will be lightly browned) and return to baking sheet. Repeat with all slices.
Coat plantain slices lightly with cooking spray sprinkle with remaining 1/8 tsp salt.
Return baking sheet to oven and bake and additional 5 minutes, until crisp.
