Heat oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350 degrees F/175 degrees C. Add half of the plantains and fry for 7 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Repeat the process with the other half.

3.
Add half of the fried plantains, half of the pork rinds, half of the bacon, half of the crushed garlic and mash together. Add up to ½ of the chicken stock until the mixture is moist. Spoon the mixture and shape into 2 inch balls.

Repeat the process with the other half and keep in a warm oven until ready to eat. Top with more crushed pork rinds or cilantro if desired and serve.
