Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 oz halloumi cheese sliced into ½-inch thick pieces
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup cucumber diced
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil plus more for brushing
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice for finishing

Equipment

  • Grill pan or outdoor grill
  • Tongs
  • Serving plate

Method
 

  1. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly brush halloumi slices with olive oil.
  2. Grill halloumi for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly charred. Remove and set aside.
  3. In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olives, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. Arrange the salad mixture on serving plates and top with the grilled halloumi slices. Drizzle with lemon juice and an extra touch of olive oil before serving.

Notes

For an extra Mediterranean twist, add a spoonful of tzatziki or a sprinkle of crumbled feta. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or cauliflower rice for a more filling meal.
