Simple and inexpensive to make, katův šleh is a spicy Czech dish prepared in numerous variations throughout the country. It usually consists of chicken or pork, onions, and bell peppers, coated in a creamy tomato sauce and seasoned with chili and Worcestershire sauce.

Despite its unusual name, translated as headman’s whip, this hearty Czech classic is a staple restaurant dish, usually served alongside rice, dumplings, bread, or French fries.
