Chivitos 'n' Chips


Chivito is the name of a sandwich-style dish that is very popular in Uruguay, South America. The word “chivito” means little goat in Spanish, yet this sandwich does not include any goat meat. Typically, the sandwich is made with beef, ham, egg, tomatoes, lettuce, mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, and other toppings on bread. There are many variations on this type of sandwich.

The history of the chivito sandwich involves a foreign woman who entered a restaurant in Uruguay and requested a meal with goat meat. As the chef did not have any goat meat, he instead created a sandwich with a thin slice of beef, and added to it all the ingredients that he could find in his kitchen. This sandwich has been a favourite in Uruguay ever since.
