Lechon Asado con plátanos--Cuban Pork Roast With Plantains


This dish was inspired by the meal that Chef Matt enjoyed in Key West at El Meson De Pepe (full review for this wonderful restaurant can be found at The Goode Life .)

Fried sweet plantains and yellow rice compliment this Cuban Pork Roast perfectly!

Lechon Asado is a Cuban pork roast that has been marinated to make it juicy and tender.  The roast will take 24 hours to marinade, so prepare in advance.

If you have been searching for a different side dish to go with your meal try these sweet plantains.  They are not difficult to make at all, and they are simply delicious.
