Peel the plantains by cutting off the ends and then slicing down the length of the plantain. Gently pull the skin away from the flesh. Cut the plantains into 1/2 inch slices.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the plantain slices and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes per side.
While the plantains are frying, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Do not let the garlic brown or burn.
When the plantains are done frying, pour the garlic butter over them and serve immediately.
