Ingredients

  • 2 large plantains
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 2 tbsp. olive oIl
  • pinch salt & pepper

Directions

  1. Peel plantains and cut in half. Slice each half lengthwise into slices about 1/4" thick. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil on medium heat. Add chicken and season with salt and pepper. Brown on all sides, then add Jamaican Jerk Taco Sauce. Simmer on low 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through (165°F).

  4. Top each plaintain slice with avocado slice, a few strips of chicken, cabbage and mango. Serve immediately.
