Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large yellow bell pepper
- 1 large red onion
- 20 pieces cherry tomatoes
- 8 ounces halloumi cheese
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
Cut the zucchini into ½-inch thick slices, the bell peppers into 1-inch squares, and the red onion into similar-sized pieces. Set aside.
Cut the halloumi cheese into 1-inch cubes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, parsley, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Thread the vegetables and halloumi onto the skewers, alternating between zucchini, bell peppers, onion, tomatoes, and halloumi for an even mix of colors.
Brush the skewers generously with the marinade, making sure all components are well-coated.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the skewers for 10–15 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred, and the halloumi is golden and soft.
Serve hot, optionally garnished with more fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon for extra freshness.
