Bocadillo de chorizo

(Bocata de chorizo)

Bocadillo de chorizo is one of the most beloved varieties of bocadillo sandwiches in Spain. It consists of a crispy roll or barra de pan (Spanish-style baguette) filled with slices of chorizo sausage. The sausage can be eaten raw, although it is often fried, grilled, or cooked with wine or cider.


Other common additions to the filling include roasted red peppers (piquillo peppers), slices of Manchego cheese, tomato slices, caramelized onions, and alioli (garlic mayonnaise). The sandwich is usually eaten as a filling snack or for lunch, and it can be enjoyed either cold or warm.
