Honey Glazed Plantains

breezermom's Note:

This recipe is made to accompany my Jerk Rib Eye and my Sauteed Collard Greens. They complement each other so well. But this is good as is, and is pretty quick to make. A nice sweet side dish. Recipe originally came from Aaron McCargo.

Mmmm, so good! I halved the recipe and so enjoyed the flavors! Thanks for a nice taste of the Caribbean! Made for the Epicurean Queens-ZWT 2009!
Update: I have now made it for the Africa part of ZWT 2011. It went great with Lentils and Rice With Caramelized Onions(Lentils and Rice with Caramalized Onion) and Sauteed Collard Greens(Sauteed Collard Greens).

Served these by themselves as sort of a snack and they were good. Made as is and they were quick and easy. I think for my personal taste I will leave off the scallions and parsley, I prefer herbs mixed in, not on top. Will change the recipe flavor, but the plantains with the honey were great on their own as well! Made for 1-2-3-Hits March 2010.
