Sandwichito Recipe. Sandwichito means little sandwich And this little sandwich packs a punch of flavor. The sandwich was created by a family from the Yucutan peninsula in Mexico which is known for its use of the spicy habanero chile. The sandwich is a creamy combination of meat with a slight hint of the larger than life taste of the habanero. This is a great appetizer for any party or family gathering.

Notes

The habanero chile is the hottest of all chiles. When mincing take great care by using plastic gloves to protect your hands and making sure not to rub your eyes or nose. Wash your hands and knife well after mincing.
