2 peaches, halved 1/2 tsp ground ancho chile pepper (optional) 4 slices sourdough bread 3 oz sliced sharp white Cheddar cheese 1 large poblano pepper, roasted and cut into strips 4 slices crisp-cooked bacon 2 Tbs butter, softened
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches and cook, turning halfway through, until bread is toasted and cheese melts, 4 to 6 minutes.
