Plantains are one amazing produce item that you probably aren’t doing much cooking with, but you totally should be! They’re incredibly delicious, super cheap, and readily available. I love cooking with plantains myself, and have made them a part of some of my favorite dishes, like my plantain stew, plantain chili, and vegan sancocho. And today, I’m introducing you to a new favorite: my black bean plantain tacos! To make these tacos you’ll be pan-frying some sliced up plantains, which is really easy — I’ll walk you through the process, so no worries! Your fried plantains will be paired up with a spicy mix of black bean and red onions, then served stuffed in warm tortillas. The combination of sweet and spicy flavors is everything!
