This is the cubanos sandwich recipe from the 2014 movie Chef
. The food in the recipe was created by real life rock star chef Roy Choi. This is the actual recipe from the movie! It was published on thestar.com
. This is supposed to be made with a panini / sandwich press but I do not have one so I've provided instructions for how to make this in a skillet. AND these are great for freezing! Refer Note 1 for instructions.
1. If you don't have homemade Mojo Marinated Pork
but need this in your life, you can use pork slices from the deli.
2. Because I made so many of these, I discovered quite by accident that they freeze really well! It's because the sandwich is compressed. Let them cool, then wrap them in baking paper (parchment paper), then foil and freeze them. Reheat them from frozen or defrosted in the oven - you don't even need to unwrap them!
3. Nutrition per serving.
