Plantain Breakfast Hash recipe

I grew up eating a lot of plantains. In part because plantains are so important in the daily Dominican diet, but also because we had about ten plantain trees scattered around our front and back yards. Whether it’s fried sweet plantains, three cheese plantain casserole, sweet plantain shrimp tacos, and plantain quesadillas, I’m in!

Today, it’s all about breakfast and this Plantain Linguisca Breakfast Hash can’t be topped. Well, it can be topped with a fried egg on it like the picture below, but seriously, flavor wise, it’s amazing. The slightly sweet plantain, the spicy Portuguese sausage and the onions and peppers as aromatics really bring it all together.

Sprinkle with some fresh cilantro, top it with that fried egg, and you’re ready to take on the day!
