To begin with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have sticky plantains using 7 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

Though yellow and black plantains can be peeled and prepped much like a banana, the tough skin and sticky sap of the green plantain require a little extra effort. If you attempt to peel a green plantain like a banana, much of the pith from the thick skin will be left behind. This pith does not breakdown during prolonged cooking. Heat oil in a heavy-duty skillet over high heat.
Instructions to make Sticky Plantains:
- Get the plantain at room temperature. Peel it. Heat the butter. Cut the plantains on a bias and put into the hot butter. Fry turning as needed for 7 minutes per side.
- Get the brown sugar and zest the orange. Add the honey sugar orange zest and orange juices. Add the rest of the ingredients.

Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate. Add plantain and fry one side of the plantains till golden brown, then turn over using a slotted spoon or turner and fry on the other side. (The second side will cook much quicker, so keep an eye on your plantains. A ruined plantain is a tragedy.) Carefully remove plantains from the hot oil using a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper. The plantains I used would have been better if they were a bit riper and I think it would be much tastier if you gave them a good brushing of melted butter. The butter would allow the brown sugar to caramelize and form a lovely coating on the finished slices of plantain.
