They keep mentioning this dish on "Power" & on "Queens", I had to look it up & found this "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" clip...




This flavorful Puerto Rican chicken and plantain dish called Chicken Mofongo is "BETTER than dynamite," according to Guy!

Yeah. It’s good. BUT, it’s heavy food lol, especially if u get pork. I wouldn’t plan anything else for the night. Just eat and chill at the crib with ur girl.

Depends on who’s making it in my experience. I’ve had more bad/mediocre ones than good, but when they’re on point they’re :ohlawd:

Firstly, that video isn't doing traditional mofongo, which is basically platanos mashed up in a mortar and pestle with fried pork rinds mixed in...hence the dome style. The sauce and everything else is poured over the top, not inside, nor is chicken stuffed inside either. But it all tastes good at that point. Its delicious if you like plantains.
