The Chacarero

This favorite Chilean sandwich from Chef Ruth Van Waerebeek is indeed a meal in a bun. You get meat, vegetables and fruit, all seasoned with traditional herbs and spices and spiked with jalapeno peppers. Another Chilean favorite is The Churrasco o Lomito - thin slices of marinated, sauteed beef or pork loin (lomito), topped with sliced tomatoes, avocado spread and mayonnaise. You can find thin sliced chuck or top round for this sandwich in most meat cases, or have the butcher slice it for you.
