Grilled plantain, a staple in many African, Caribbean, and Latin American cuisines, is a versatile dish often enjoyed as a snack or side. Made from ripe plantains, it is typically peeled, sliced, and grilled until caramelized and tender. Plantains are rich in fiber, potassium, and vitamins such as A and C, offering health benefits like improved digestion and immune support. While grilling enhances their natural sweetness without the need for added sugars or oils, some recipes may include butter or seasoning, which can increase calorie content. Low in fat and cholesterol when prepared simply, grilled plantains strike a balance between satisfying flavor and nutritious value. Commonly paired with savory dishes or enjoyed on their own, they highlight the cultural richness of tropical cuisines while offering a healthier alternative to fried versions.
