Cuban Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Al Pastor Sauce

A bold remix of the Cuban classic, this sandwich layers smoky-sweet Al Pastor flavor into every bite. Juicy grilled chicken, marinated in rich Custom Culinary® Al Pastor sauce, is stacked with savory ham, melted Swiss cheese, tangy pickles, and a swipe of yellow mustard on crisp-pressed telera or bolillo rolls. Finished with a warm drizzle of Al Pastor sauce, it’s a perfect fusion of Cuban tradition and Mexican flair—melty, tangy, and irresistibly satisfying.
