Bocadillo de pollo

(Bocata de pollo)

Bocadillo de pollo is a Spanish chicken sandwich that can be prepared in many different ways. As with other bocadillo varieties, the Spanish-style baguette called barra de pan is the most common choice for bread, although other types of bread such as ciabatta may also be used for this sandwich.


The bread is typically sliced lengthwise, and it is then usually slathered with mayonnaise before it is topped with chicken and other ingredients such as tomato slices, arugula, lettuce, crispy fried onions, fried bacon, or slices of cheese. The chicken may come in many forms - shredded, grilled, breaded and fried - or even in the form of a creamy chicken salad.


Once the filling is assembled, the sandwich is topped with the other half of the bread and enjoyed.
