Instructions

1. 1

   Peel 3 large green plantains and slice each into 0.5-inch thick medallions, then toss the slices with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, combine 1.5 pounds of raw large shrimp with 2 tablespoons of authentic jerk seasoning and 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, mixing well to coat all shrimp.

3. 3

   Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, then add the plantain medallions in a single layer and pan-sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly caramelized, removing them to a plate when done.

4. 4

   Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the same skillet, then add the seasoned shrimp and pan-sear for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.

5. 5

   While the shrimp cooks, combine 0.5 cup of finely diced red onion, 0.5 cup of finely diced red bell pepper, and 0.25 cup of chopped fresh cilantro with the remaining 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice in a small bowl.

6. 6

   Serve the pan-seared jerk shrimp immediately, arranged alongside the sweet plantain medallions, and top with the vibrant lime and vegetable salsa.
