Cuban Plantain Chips

==Ingredients==
* 3 – 4 cups canola or peanut oil for frying
* 2 green plantains
* salt or garlic salt
==Directions==
# Pour the oil to a depth of 2 or 3 inches in a deep-fat fryer, Dutch oven or heavy skillet and heat to 350°F.
# Peel the plantains.
# Slice as thinly as possible (length-wise for "mariquitas" or in round chips for "chicharritas") using a mandolin if you have one, with the blade at its thinnest opening.
# Slide them into the hot oil in small batches to prevent clumping.
# Fry until golden brown and crispy (about 1 or 2 minutes), turning with a metal skimmer.
# Drain on paper towels.
# Sprinkle with salt and/or garlic salt.
# Serve immediately.
