Bold and Flavorful: Savory Stuffed Plantains Recipe to Impress Your

Savory Stuffed Plantains

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and flavorful recipe for savory stuffed plantains. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or a special gathering with friends. The combination of sweet plantains, tangy goat cheese, and spicy chorizo creates a dish that is sure to impress your taste buds.

Ingredients:

• ripe plantains (about 500g)
• chorizo sausage (about 200g)
• goat cheese (about 100g)
• red onion (1 medium)
• garlic cloves (2 cloves)
• olive oil (2 tbsp)
• salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• cutting board
• knife
• baking sheet
• skillet
• spatula

To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel the plantains and cut them in half lengthwise. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes until they are slightly golden and tender.

While the plantains are baking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped red onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened. Crumble in the chorizo sausage and cook until browned and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Once the plantains are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Scoop out a portion of the flesh from each plantain half to create a well for the stuffing. Fill each plantain with the chorizo mixture, then top with crumbled goat cheese.

Return the stuffed plantains to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the goat cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

This dish is best enjoyed hot, with the gooey goat cheese contrasting with the savory chorizo and sweet plantains. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to delight your palate.
