The classic Cuban sandwich, despite its name, was invented in the United States and is made with pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard. Jeff Mauro figured out how to make it special. First, he topped the sandwiches with a buttery mojo sauce with parsley and citrus zest. Second, he decided to bake them in the oven. The taste of a fully heated sandwich is a whole new level!

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the parsley, oregano, cumin, garlic, orange and lime zest and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. In a medium bowl, combine the pork and about 3 tablespoons of the oil mixture and toss to coat.
  4. Spread some of the remaining butter mixture over the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, then place the bottom half of the buns on the butter. Top with the ham, then the pork, pickles, and finally the cheese. Spread mustard on the cut side of the buns, then place it on top of the cheese. Drizzle the remaining butter mixture over the buns.
  5. Cover the baking dish loosely with foil and bake for 20–25 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown on top, about 5 more minutes.
