6 servings

  • 2 ripe plantains, sliced on bias in ¼-inch (6 mm) slices
  • 10 eggs
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 6 oz smoked sausage, (pork, turkey, chicken or beef), thinly sliced
  • ½ red bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ green bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ large yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 roma tomatoes, seeds removed and diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper
  • olive oil
  • fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • avocado, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400-degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Toss plantain slices with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a large bowl and add to the prepared sheet in a single layer. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes until golden brown but soft on the inside. Set aside to cool.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the eggs and milk until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 10-inch (25 cm) cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add peppers and onions to skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add garlic and tomatoes; cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add egg mixture and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
  • Remove from heat and top with cooked plantain slices.
  • Transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, just until the eggs are barely set.
  • Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes then garnish with cilantro and avocado slices.
  • Enjoy!
