INGREDIENTS

Seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon ancho chile pepper (optional)
Bread
- 4 slices sourdough bread
Protein
- 🥓 4 slices crisp-cooked bacon
Dairy
- 🧈 2 tablespoons butter, softened

STEPS

Sprinkle cut sides of peach halves with ground chile (if using). Using a potato masher, a flat-bottom heavy skillet, or the flat side of a meat mallet, gently smash peach halves to 1/2-inch thickness.

Top 2 bread slices with Cheddar cheese. Layer 2 peach halves, half of the poblano strips, and 2 slices bacon on top of the cheese. Top with remaining bread slices. Butter both sides of each sandwich.

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches and cook, turning halfway through, until bread is toasted and cheese melts, 4 to 6 minutes.
