Instructions

1. 1Prepare your ingredients: Cut the 1 block (about 225 g) Halloumi cheese into 2.54 cm cubes. Chop the 2 medium Zucchini, 3 medium Bell peppers (red, yellow, orange), and 1 medium Red onion into pieces roughly the same size as the halloumi cubes. Leave the 1 pint Cherry tomatoes whole.
2. 2Assemble the skewers: Thread the halloumi cubes and prepared vegetables onto skewers, alternating the halloumi with zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Aim for an even distribution of ingredients on each skewer.
3. 3Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp Olive oil, 2 tbsp Lemon juice, 2 cloves minced Garlic, 1 tbsp Fresh oregano, 1 tbsp Fresh thyme, 0.5 tsp Salt, and 0.25 tsp Black pepper until well combined.
4. 4Coat the skewers: Brush the assembled skewers generously on all sides with the lemon-herb dressing you just made.
5. 5Preheat the grill: Set your grill to medium heat, which is approximately 176.7-204.4°C (175-200°C).
6. 6Grill the skewers: Place the dressed skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the halloumi cheese is golden brown and slightly softened, and the vegetables are tender and have light grill marks.
7. 7Serve: Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately.
