Sautéed Sweet Plantains

1. 1

   Peel the plantains and cut them in half. Slice the halves lengthwise into thin pieces.

2. 2

   Heat 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet and place over medium low heat (plantains have a high sugar content and will burn if the heat is too high.) Saute the plantains in a single layer, until golden on the bottom then turn over with a spatula. Add the cinnamon, vanilla, and sugar and let cook a few more seconds, just to begin caramelizing the sugar.

3. 3

   Melt remaining tablespoon of butter and drizzle over before serving. Goes well with vanilla ice cream!
