Fried plantain chips are a popular snack or side dish originating from Latin American, Caribbean, African, and Southeast Asian cuisines. Made by slicing ripe or green plantains thinly and frying them until crispy, these chips are seasoned lightly with salt or spices for added flavor. Plantains are a nutrient-rich cousin of bananas and provide a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins A and C, and essential minerals like potassium. However, because they are fried, plantain chips can be high in calories and fat, especially when cooked in oil with added salt. Opting for baked or air-fried versions can make this snack a healthier choice. Deliciously crunchy and versatile, fried plantain chips are enjoyed on their own or paired with dips for a savory treat.
