Ingredients
- 3 medium plantain green
- 1/3 cup orange juice or 1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice + 1 tbsp lime juice, sour
- 2 tsp canola oil
- 2 tsp olive oil
- salt
- 1 garlic minced, large clove
- olive oil spray form

- 1/2 tsp cumin

- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Heat a small sauce pan on low flame, when hot add oil.
- Spray baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Saute garlic on low for about 2 minutes, do not brown.

- Lightly re-spray the baking sheet and place the plantains brown side up onto the baking sheet.
- Lightly spray the top and bake for another 15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
