Chacarero
Chilean marraqueta sandwich layered with thin beef, tomato and tender-crisp green beans, with optional green chile.
About Chacarero
Chacarero is a Chilean sandwich whose defining combination is thin beef, tomato and cooked green beans. This profile follows Chilean cook Pilar Hernandez's home recipe, selecting marraqueta and top sirloin while retaining her green chile as optional and excluding optional mayonnaise.
Hot, savoury beef meets juicy ripe tomato and the fresh vegetal flavour of tender-crisp green beans. Butter enriches the bread, while optional green chile adds the sharp heat associated with the classic sandwich.
The round roll is generously layered, with thin browned beef beneath red tomato slices and a loose pile of bright green beans. The beans stay lightly crisp against the juicy meat and tomato rather than becoming soft or mashed.
