Churrasco Italiano

01 / ABOUT THE DISH

About the dish

Churrasco Italiano is a mouth-watering Chilean sandwich made with thin slices of grilled steak, mayonnaise, tomatoes, and palta – a local name for avocados - all tucked into fresh bread rolls. But why is this sandwich dubbed Italiano ? It's because each addition represents a color of the Italian flag: palta for green, mayo for white, and tomatoes for red. Consuming this sandwich might prove to be quite sloppy, so serve it with lots of napkins.
