Ingredients
- Skewers
- 8
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Olive oil
- 1/4 cup
- Cherry tomatoes
- 1 pint
- Red onion
- 1, cut into chunks
- Bell peppers
- 2, cut into chunks
- Zucchini
- 1, cut into slices
- Halloumi cheese
- 8 oz, cut into cubes
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.
- In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined. This will serve as your flavorful marinade.
- Thread the halloumi cheese, zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto the skewers. Try to alternate between the different ingredients for a colorful presentation.
- Generously brush the skewers with the marinade mixture, ensuring to coat all sides of the veggies and halloumi.
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the halloumi cheese has beautiful charred marks.
- Remove the skewers from the grill. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve hot, with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the top for an extra zing. Pair these skewers with warm pita bread and a side of homemade tzatziki sauce for a complete Mediterranean feast.
