Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan add the Green Plantain Pieces, chicken stock, Sazon with Annanato and my basting olive oil. Cook over med-low until the pieces begin to brake, help it with a spoon and at some point you will get the pure that will look similar to mashed potatoes, however, super moisty like a cream.
