CANOAS (SWEET PLANTAIN BOATS) RECIPE BY TASTY



Canoas (Sweet Plantain Boats) Recipe by Tasty image

Puerto Rican sweet plantain boats filled with a delicious beef mixture and topped with creamy mozzarella cheese make the perfect savory dish to share with your loved ones.

Provided by Tikeyah Whittle

Categories     Sides

Time 1h3m

Yield 4 canoas

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup yellow onion, diced - about 1 small onion
1 green bell pepper, small
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
1 lb ground beef
¾ teaspoon adobo seasoning
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons tomato sauce
3 cups vegetable oil
4 ripe plantains, peeled
kosher salt, to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
16 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
fresh cilantro, torn, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C)
  • Make the beef filling: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and green pepper and sauté until softened and translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cilantro and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
  • Add the ground beef, breaking up with a spatula to incorporate into the vegetables. Season with the adobo, garlic powder, and black pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess liquid.
  • Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium-low heat, stir in the tomato sauce, and cook until heated through, 2-3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside until ready to use.
  • Make the plantains: Heat the vegetable oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering. Working in batches if needed, add the plantains and fry, turning every 30 seconds or so, until golden brown on sides and soft enough to be pierced with a fork, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain until cool enough to handle.
  • Transfer the plantains to a cutting board. Cut a slit lengthwise down each plantain, being careful not to cut all the way through. Use 2 forks to gently pull each plantain open. Use a fork, flat-side down, to press the base of the "canoe" to widen. Season with salt. Transfer to an 8-inch baking dish.
  • Fill each plantain with ¼-⅓ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, add about ½-¾ cup of the beef filling to each plantain, then top with ¼-⅓ cups more cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil and broil for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and bubbly. Garnish with torn cilantro.
  • Enjoy!

STUFFED ZUCCHINI BOATS



Stuffed Zucchini Boats image

While any medium sized ripe zucchinis will do, use garden fresh ones if you have them. The tender sweet flesh of the zucchinis paired with the spiced meat and cool yogurt sauce will make you forget that this dish is less than 500 calories per serving!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 zucchinis (about 2 1/2 pounds), halved lengthwise and seeds scooped out
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 onion, diced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 pound ground turkey
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup packed fresh dill, torn

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Drizzle a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season the zucchini halves with salt and pepper. Add to the baking sheet and turn to coat with the oil. Arrange the zucchini cut-side down in a single layer. Roast until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the cumin and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook 30 seconds. Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and chicken broth until combined. Cook until the broth is reduced to a thick sauce, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Turn the zucchini boats cut-side up and fill with the turkey mixture, packing it in. Sprinkle with the cheese and roast until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is softened, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir together the yogurt and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the zucchini boats with the yogurt mixture and top with the dill.

Tips:

  • Make sure to slice the beef thinly against the grain. This will help it cook quickly and evenly.

  • Cook the beef for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Serve the beef immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
