Instructions

1. 1Preheat your grill to medium heat, which is approximately 176.7-204.4°C (175-200°C).
2. 2Cut the about 225 g Halloumi cheese into 2.54 cm cubes. Cut the 1 medium Zucchini into 2.54 cm thick half-moons. Cut the 2 medium Bell peppers into 2.54 cm pieces, removing the seeds and membranes. Cut the 1 medium Red onion into 2.54 cm wedges. Leave the 1 cup Cherry tomatoes whole.
3. 3In a large bowl, combine the cubed halloumi, zucchini half-moons, bell pepper pieces, red onion wedges, and cherry tomatoes.
4. 4Drizzle the 2 tbsp Olive oil over the ingredients in the bowl. Sprinkle with the 2 tbsp Za'atar spice, 0.25 tsp Salt, and 0.25 tsp Black pepper. Toss everything gently until it is all evenly coated.
5. 5Carefully thread the coated halloumi and vegetables onto skewers, alternating the ingredients. Aim for about 4-6 skewers.
6. 6Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning them every few minutes. You will know they are ready when the vegetables are tender and slightly charred, and the halloumi is golden brown and softened.
7. 7Remove the skewers from the grill. Drizzle the 1 tbsp Lemon juice over the hot skewers just before serving.
