Ingredients

  • about 225 g Halloumi cheese
  • 2 cups Watermelon
  • 0.25 cup Fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Cut the about 225 g of Halloumi cheese into 2.54 cm cubes. Then, cut the 2 cups of Watermelon into 2.54 cm cubes.
  2. 2Carefully thread the 2.54 cm cubes of Halloumi and the 2.54 cm cubes of Watermelon alternately onto skewers.
  3. 3Brush the assembled skewers evenly with the 1 tablespoon of Olive oil. Preheat a grill to medium heat, which is approximately 176.7-190.6°C (175-190°C).
  4. 4Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning carefully, until the Halloumi cheese is golden brown and slightly softened. This will take a total of 8 to 12 minutes.
  5. 5While the skewers are grilling or immediately after, finely chop the 0.25 cup of Fresh mint leaves. Once grilled, transfer the skewers to a serving platter.
  6. 6Drizzle the 1 tablespoon of Lemon juice over the skewers. Sprinkle with the chopped 0.25 cup of Fresh mint leaves and the 0.25 teaspoon of Black pepper. Serve immediately.
