Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400-degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss plantain slices with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a large bowl and add to the prepared sheet in a single layer. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes until golden brown but soft on the inside. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs and milk until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 10-inch (25 cm) cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add peppers and onions to skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic and tomatoes; cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and add egg mixture and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
- Remove from heat and top with cooked plantain slices.
- Transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, just until the eggs are barely set.
- Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes then garnish with cilantro and avocado slices.
- Enjoy!
