Panes Compuestos Chiapanecos
The Pan Compuesto is a snack from the city of Comitán de Domínguez, in the state of Chiapas, a region close to the border with Guatemala. This dish is a classic sandwich, served mainly in the cenadurías from that city. The actual preparation of this dish will require a bit of planning, as before making these sandwiches the pickled vegetables condiment has to be ready, plus the pork meat filling and the other typical ingredients which can be onions and tomatoes. The paninis or French-type bread rolls, are sliced open in halves and spread with mashed beans and then filled with meat and pickled vegetables.
