Ingredients:
8 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
8 ounces halloumi cheese, cut into cubes
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 zucchini, sliced
1 red onion, cut into wedges
1 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
Thread the halloumi cheese, bell pepper chunks, zucchini slices, red onion wedges, and cherry tomatoes onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating the ingredients.
Place the skewers on a platter or baking sheet and brush the marinade over the vegetables and halloumi, making sure to coat them evenly.
Carefully place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until the vegetables are tender and the halloumi is slightly browned and crispy.
Remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves for added freshness and aroma.
Serve the Grilled Veggie and Halloumi Skewers as a delicious and flavorful appetizer or main course.
