Original recipe (1X) yields 3 servings

Marinade

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste

Skewers

  • 8 ounces halloumi cheese

  • 1 large bell pepper, any color

  • 1/2 red onion, peeled

  • 8 baby bella (cremini) mushrooms, stems removed

  • 8 grape tomatoes

Directions

  • Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.


  • Remove halloumi from the package, pat dry with a paper towel, and cut into 1-inch chunks. Cut bell pepper and red onion into chunks a little larger than the cheese.


  • Combine halloumi, bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, and tomatoes in a bowl. Drizzle with marinade, and toss until well coated. Set aside for at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes.


  • Alternately thread halloumi and veggies onto skewers, reserving leftover marinade. 


  • Preheat a grill for medium-high heat, and brush the grates well with oil.


  • Place skewers on the grill and cook for about 6 to 8 minutes. Baste with reserved marinade and flip halfway through until veggies begin to char and halloumi softens. Serve immediately.

    Cook’s Note

    Making the halloumi chunks a little smaller than the veggies reduces the possibility that cheese will touch grill grates or stick.
