  • Cochinita pibil. Cochinita pibil is a slow-cooked pork dish marinated in achiote and bitter Seville orange, and it’s Yucatán’s star plato fuerte (main meal).
  • Queso relleno. This one’s for the cheese lovers. Considered Yucatán’s ultimate fusion dish, queso relleno is a hollowed out ball of Edam cheese (from the Dutch) that’s filled and baked with minced pork meat, raisins, almonds, and olives (from the Mediterranean), and topped with a creamy tomato and k’ool blanco sauce (from the Mayans).
  • Sopa de lima. A soup made from shredded chicken and limetta (sweet) limes, sopa de lima is a very simple, yet delicious, citrusy dish. Usually served as a starter or side, the best sopa de lima will be a perfectly balanced and refreshing — but not too tangy or bitter — chicken broth with a generous handful of cilantro and crispy fried tortilla chips.
  • Crema de chaya. You’ll see chaya, a native species of spinach that grows in abundance in Yucatán, appear in several dishes. While you’ll be able to get a taste of it in empanadas, tortillas, and tacos up and down the region, the best way to eat it is in a delicious creamy soup known locally as crema de chaya.
  • Marquesitas. Said to have been invented in Merida by an entrepreneurial ice cream vendor in the 1940s, marquesitas are a favorite street snack in Yucatán.

37 BEST YUCATAN FOODS & MAYAN DISHES IN MEXICO [2023]

  • Cochinita Pibil | Most Popular Yucatan Food. The king of Yucatan foods, cochinita pibil is essentially Mayan BBQ! This beloved dish is made with marinated cochinita (suckling pig), that’s wrapped in banana leaves and slow-roasted underground in an oven called a pib — hence the “pibil” in cochinita pibil.
  • Papadzules | Traditional Mayan Food. You may be wondering if there are any Yucatan vegetarian foods. In all honesty, there aren’t many, but for vegetarians traveling to Yucatan Mexico, you’ll definitely have to try the papadzules (pronounced pa-pawed-zool-es).
  • Poc Chuc | Yucatan Foods: Main Plates. Poc chuc is a thin pork filet that’s only seasoned with naranja agria juice, then grilled. Though a seemingly simple dish, poc chuc let’s two of the central and most important Yucatan ingredients shine — pork and naranja agria (sour orange).
  • Queso Relleno. Queso relleno, meaning “stuffed cheese,” is a more modern dish — and actually, heavily influenced by the European and Dutch expats who moved to the Yucatan.
  • X’catic Relleno. Chili x’catic (pronounced ish-ka-teek) is a long, bright yellow chili pepper, similar to a banana pepper. It is a bit spicy, and used most often in crema de chili x’catic, a creamy dip you can find in most grocery stores.
