How to make spicy plantain chips

To make spicy plantain chips, you will need the following ingredients:

- 2-3 ripe plantains
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (adjust according to your spice preference)
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt

Here's the step-by-step process:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Peel the plantains and cut them into thin slices using a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife. Try to keep the slices evenly thick for uniform cooking.

3. In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt until well combined.

4. Toss the plantain slices in the spicy oil mixture, ensuring all the slices are coated evenly.

5. Arrange the coated plantain slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don't overlap.

6. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, until the chips become crispy and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

7. Once they are cooked, remove the chips from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will become even crispier as they cool.

8. Once completely cooled, transfer the spicy plantain chips to an airtight container for storage. They can be stored for up to one week.
