"This recipe is made to accompany my Recipe #373203 and my Recipe #373114. 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."

I made this recipe without any alterations, and I really liked how the honey and green onion (scallion) imparted such wonderful flavors to these pan-fried plantains. I used ripe yellow plantains with just the beginning of black specks in the peel, so after cooking they turned out pretty tender with just a hint of caramelizing on the edges, and they had lots of flavor. I served them with homemade Johnny Cakes and some fresh blueberries for breakfast. Thanks, breezermom. We really liked these Honey Glazed Plantains. Made for Culinary Quest 2017 (Central America).

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!<br/>Update: I have now made it for the Africa part of ZWT 2011. It went great with Recipe#385515(Lentils and Rice with Caramalized Onion) and Recipe#373114(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.
