Eggs, Sausage

Ingredients

  • 4 large plantains
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup fresh chimichurri sauce
  • 2 spicy grilled sausages
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel and slice plantains into 1/4 inch thick rounds.
  3. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add plantain slices, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer the cooked plantain hash to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 12 minutes until fully cooked through.
  4. While the plantain hash is baking, heat a non stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook them as desired. For a runny yolk, cook for about 3 4 minutes or until the whites are set but yolks remain soft.
  5. Place the baked plantain hash on two serving plates, creating a base layer. Top with eggs, spicy grilled sausages, and generously spoon chimichurri sauce over everything. Garnish with fresh parsley.
