Sweet and Savory Fried Plantains

1 large yellow plantain, peeled
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon reduced-fat margarine (such as Smart Balance®)
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon agave nectar
1/3 teaspoon light brown sugar
1 pinch ground cinnamon, or more to taste (optional)

Cut plantain into three sections. Quarter each section so you have twelve pieces. Season plantain pieces with garlic powder.
Heat oil and margarine together in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook plantains in hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side; season with black pepper and continue to cook until slightly darker in color, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove skillet from heat and drizzle agave syrup over the plantain pieces. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon over the plantains.
