These oven-baked plantain chips hit that perfect sweet-savory edge that makes it impossible to stop at just one handful. Green plantains are sliced paper-thin, tossed in coconut oil with fresh ginger and a whisper of turmeric, then baked until golden and impossibly crisp. The scallion greens go on right out of the oven, softening just enough from the residual heat to meld into every chip without losing their bright, grassy flavor. It's a snack that feels genuinely craveable rather than like a compromise, and the whole thing comes together with ingredients you can feel good about. For anyone eating a seafood-forward diet, finding satisfying plant-based snacks that aren't loaded with mystery additives can be a real challenge β this one keeps things clean and completely whole-food. The mandoline step is worth the extra minute of setup, since uniform slices mean every chip bakes evenly and you avoid the frustrating mix of burnt edges and soggy centers. Let them cool fully on the pan and they'll shatter with that satisfying crunch that store-bought chips rarely deliver.

Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Score the skin of each plantain lengthwise with a knife, then peel. Using a mandoline set to 1/16-inch (about 1.5 mm) or a sharp knife, slice the plantains crosswise into rounds as thin and uniform as possible β uneven slices will brown at different rates.
