Method

1

Peel and cube plantains into 1-inch pieces. Dice the base vegetable and onion. Mince garlic.

2

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and rendered, 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

3

In the same skillet with chorizo fat, add onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

4

Add base vegetable and plantain cubes. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until plantains are tender and edges are caramelized, 12–15 minutes.

5

Return chorizo to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for 1–2 minutes to warm through.

6

Drizzle with sauce if using. Top with fresh herb garnish and serve with lime wedges.
