Main ingredientsBread, grilled meat, Spanish ham, tomato

The main ingredients are grilled meat (chicken or pork loin), cured ham, fried green pepper and sliced tomato. Other versions also include omelet, lettuce, cheese or fried bacon. It is served with french fries and frequently with sauces like mojo picón, mayonnaise or alioli.

It is generally consumed at lunch or dinner, as a main dish after a snack of tapas. It is quite typical in fairs and verbenas.

A smaller version of the serranito is known as the montadito [es].

As the origin of this typical dish today, there are the "Échate pa' ya" bars in the Cerro del Águila and Juan XXIII neighborhoods of Seville in the 1970s.[citation needed] From that formula, the ex-bullfighter José Luis Cabeza Hernández, who during his active time was known as José Luis del Serranito, patented the trademark and the term Serranito, as well as the tapa.[2]
