Ingredients
- 3 pieces chicken breast steak boneless, skinless
- 3 slices Semi-hard cheese e.g., Gouda, Edam, Monterey Jack or Havarti
- 2 canned peaches in sweet brine
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Clean and wash 3 pieces chicken breast steak, then pat them dry using kitchen paper towels.
- Cover the chicken steak with a piece of plastic wrap and pound it with a meat mallet to about ½ inch thickness. Season the steaks on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper.
- Melt 2 Tablespoons butter in a pan over medium heat. Place the prepared chicken steak in the melted butter, increase the heat slightly, and fry the meat on both sides until golden brown on the surface.
- In the meantime, prepare 2 canned peaches: depending on their size, halve or quarter them and place them in a home grill or toaster to enhance its flavor.
- Remove the pan with the cooked chicken steak from the stove. Place a slice of cheese on top of each steak. Cover with a lid and let the cheese partially melt.
- Arrange the chicken steak with melted cheese on a plate, top with a peach, and serve with boiled potatoes. Pour over the juices from the pan that were produced during the cooking of the chicken.

Notes
- The basic recipe makes 3 portions.
- Turn the meat with tongs; do not pierce it with a fork, as this will cause the juices to run out and make the steak unnecessarily dry.
- The fatter the cheese you use, the more it melts, which is not always desirable. The ideal fat content of the cheese should be around 30-35%.
- You don't have to grill the peach in advance. Instead, cover the fried chicken steak with sliced peaches, place the cheese on top, and let it melt under the lid.
