Grilled Chilean Churrascas (Traditional Bread)

Recipe by Alvaro Barrientos Montero

Traditional Chilean churrascas are soft, slightly sweet flat breads originally made by laborers on the grill. This recipe reproduces the authentic method using flour, pork lard (or butter), dry yeast, and a warm water blend. The dough is kneaded by hand, rested, shaped into small balls, and finished on a hot grill for a lightly crisp, golden exterior. Perfect as a side for any parrilla feast, with grilled meats, vegetables, or simply butter and goat cheese.

Critical Success Points

  • Ensuring the lard (or butter) is soft before mixing.
  • Adding water gradually to achieve the right dough consistency.
  • Kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  • Allowing both fermentation rests for proper gluten development.
  • Grilling at medium heat to avoid burning and achieve a golden crust.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot grill with tongs and heat‑proof gloves to avoid burns.
  • Do not ingest raw dough containing yeast.
