Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 250 grams Halloumi cheese
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 10 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
Chop the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch squares.
Peel and quarter the red onion, then separate the layers.
Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Cut the halloumi cheese into 1-inch cubes.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
In a large bowl, combine all the chopped vegetables and halloumi cheese, then pour the marinade over them.
Gently toss to ensure all pieces are well coated in the marinade. Allow them to marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated vegetables and halloumi onto the soaked skewers, alternating between different vegetables and halloumi for a colorful arrangement.
Place the kebabs on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and have nice grill marks.
Remove from the grill and serve warm. These kebabs can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a side salad or bread.
