Chivito is the national dish of Uruguay,[citation needed] It is a thin slice of tender cooked beef steak (churrasco), with mozzarella, tomatoes, mayonnaise, black or green olives, and commonly also bacon, fried or hard-boiled eggs and ham, served as a sandwich in a bun, often accompanied by French fried potatoes.[2][3] Other ingredients, such as red beets, peas, grilled or pan-fried red peppers, and slices of cucumber, may be added.[4][5]

In Argentina a sandwich of this sort is called lomito.

Origin

Chivito is the diminutive of chivo, goat, and means kid (young goat). In neighbouring Argentina, chivito, barbecued kid, is a popular asado dish; it is reported that the Uruguayan chivito arose in Punta del Este, Uruguay, at a restaurant called "El Mejillón Bar" in 1946, when a woman[6][7][8] from Argentina ordered a sandwich of chivito for a hurried meal, expecting kid.[1] The restaurant owner, Antonio Carbonaro, did not have this meat, and used beef fillet steak instead.[9][10]

Variations

The Canadian Chivito (in Spanish chivito canadiense) is a variation of the sandwich, with the addition of panceta.[11]

The chivito can be served as a platter rather than a sandwich (chivito al plato).[10] It is usually served with Russian salad or French fries.

Maldonado, Uruguay

Maldonado, Uruguay holds a chivito party on a date close to Maldonado Day, October 19. Activities typically include food tasting, children's activities (pony rides, milking cows), and live music.[12] and dance presentations.[13]

The second party was held in Plaza San Fernando on October 19–21, 2012,[14][15] and third on October 17–21, 2013.[16][17][18][19]
