Grilled Plantains With Cinnamon Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the butter glaze
• Place the butter and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved in it. Add the vinegar and stir well. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Prepare, grill, and serve the plantains
• Heat your grill to high (550°F) and close the lid. Wait at least 15 minutes before lowering the heat to medium-high (450°F) and continuing. Oil the grill grates with a vegetable oil-soaked paper towel held with a long pair of tongs.
• Slice the unpeeled plantains in half lengthwise and place them cut side down on the grill. Close the lid and cook for 15 minutes. Turn the plantains over and baste the cut sides of the plantains with the butter glaze. Close the lid and continue cooking for another 15 minutes. Brush a bit more glaze on the plantains before removing them from the grill.
• Serve the plantains in their skins while hot from the grill.

Steps:

• Gently roll the plantains back and forth across the table to soften before grilling. Peel and slice the plantains into long, bias-cut slices 1/4-inch thick. Season on one side with pepper, cinnamon and with salt, if desired.
• Grill plantains before grilling the swordfish or, if there is enough room, grill plantains and fish simultaneously, cooking plantains a couple of minutes at the most on each side. Plantains do not have to be hot.
• Arrange on the plate with swordfish and salsa.

Steps:

• Fire up the grill.
• Cut peaches along the seam all the way around and remove pit from peaches.
• Put a saucepan over medium heat, and add pecans. Heat the pecans until they're lightly toasted and fragrant, stirring often.
• Add butter and stir until melted then add the sugar and cinnamon, stirring until everything comes together and looks like a pecan pie sauce.
• Using a pastry brush, spread the sauce all over the peach halves.
• Slap them on the grill. Grill for 4-6 minutes per side, or until the peaches have softened and have nice grill marks.
• Serve each grilled peach half with a scoop of ice cream.
• Drizzle the pecans and sauce on top.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat grill. Brush the plantains with the oil and grill until caramelized, about 2 minutes on each side. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, orange juice, honey and cilantro and brush on plantains. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the egg yolks and brown sugar until thick and pale brown. In a saucepan combine the milk and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. Stir 1/2 cup of the milk into the egg mixture, then whisk the eggs into the pan of milk. Set aside to cool. Pass the custard mixture through a medium strainer. Add the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, salt and crema. Whisk well and refrigerate until cold.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and toast until golden brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool and then roughly chop. Pour the chilled custard mixture into your ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fold in the cooled toasted pecans. Store in the freezer.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Place rum, brown sugar, and salt in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar has melted and the mixture reduces and thickens slightly. Stir in butter until melted. Remove from the heat.
• Brush plantains with oil on both sides and grill until golden brown and caramelized, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Brush with the glaze during the last few minutes of grilling. Remove from the grill and brush with more of the glaze before serving.

Steps:

• Toast the cumin seeds in a small skillet over high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Grind the seeds in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle.
• Heat the olive oil and garlic along with the toasted cumin over medium-high heat and cook until garlic begins to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Put in a non-reactive bowl and stir in lime juice, oregano, salt, pepper, and jalapeno.
• Preheat stove top or outdoor grill to high heat. Cut plantains in half lengthwise and brush lightly with olive oil. Place on grill, skin-side down, and cook until soft about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and serve with the mojo sauce.

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the half-and-half, cream, vanilla, cinnamon stick and ground cinnamon, whisking occasionally to make sure the mixture doesn?t burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. When the cream mixture reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat and let the flavors infuse for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the egg yolks and the sugar. In a thin stream, whisk half of the cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Then pour the egg-cream mixture back into the saucepan containing the rest of the cream mixture. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. At 160 degrees, the mixture will give off a puff of steam. When the mixture reaches 180 degrees it will be thickened and creamy, like eggnog. If you don?t have a thermometer, test it by dipping a wooden spoon into the mixture. Run your finger down the back of the spoon. If the stripe remains clear, the mixture is ready; if the edges blur, the mixture is not quite thick enough yet. When it is ready, quickly remove it from the heat.
• Meanwhile, in a bowl, put two handfuls of ice cubes in the bottom, and add cold water to cover. Rest a smaller bowl in the ice water. Pour the cream mixture through a fine sieve or chinois (to remove the vanilla bean pieces and cinnamon sticks) and into the smaller bowl. Chill 3 hours, then continue according to the directions of your ice cream maker.

Steps:

• Add butter and brown sugar to a high sided skillet over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture turns into golden brown syrup and the sugar is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes.
• Add cinnamon, nutmeg and plantains; cook until plantains are lightly browned and soft, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add rum and use a long kitchen lighter to ignite the liqueur. Keep cooking until alcohol burns off and no flame remains, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Once the flame burns out, keep cooking, spooning sauce over plantains until syrupy and reduced, aout 2 minutes.
• Serve over ice cream with crushed peanuts.
• Enjoy!
