Grilled Halloumi With Spicy Sweet Peppers Recipes

SPICED GRILLED HALLOUMI

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking over medium-high heat by pouring the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all of the burners to high, then turn off one of the end burners before cooking.
• While the grill is heating, arrange the tomatoes on a platter with an edge to prevent leaking and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Drizzle with olive oil. Set aside. Pat halloumi dry and drizzle with olive oil to coat on both sides. Set aside.
• In a small skillet over medium-low heat, toast the coriander seeds, cumin seeds and red-pepper flakes, shaking often, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and smash with the side of your knife until cracked. (You can also do this with a mortar and pestle.) Transfer to a small bowl, add the sugar, and rub with your fingers to further crush the seeds.
• When you're ready to grill, take the halloumi, tomatoes, seeds, tongs and a tightly folded paper towel soaked with olive oil to the grill. Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Grill the cheese over the flame, flipping halfway through, until well browned and it releases easily from the gates, 4 to 6 minutes total. (For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and keeping an eye out for flare-ups.) If the cheese sticks to the grates, give it another minute on the heat. Transfer the cheese to the tomatoes, then sprinkle with the seeds. Season to taste with more red-pepper flakes, sugar and olive oil.

GRILLED SPICY HALLOUMI CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Mix Sriracha, olive oil, garlic powder, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Dip each halloumi cheese slice into Sriracha mixture and let rest 5 minutes.
• Place each halloumi slice on the hot grill and cook for 3 minutes. Carefully flip slices and cook an additional 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

GRILLED SWEET PEPPERS WITH GOAT CHEESE AND HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to 350 to 400 degrees F, or medium-high heat.
• Place the peppers in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss with the salt, pepper and paprika.
• Grill the peppers, without the grill lid and turning often, until just slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Spoon the goat cheese evenly into the pepper halves. Sprinkle with the rosemary and thyme.

GRILLED HALLOUMI

Steps:

• Preheat a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Brush grill grates with some oil.
• Brush the halloumi with some of the olive oil.
• Combine the zaatar, caraway seeds, oregano and pepper in a small bowl. Mix until combined, then sprinkle over all sides of the halloumi.
• Grill on each side until charred, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with olive oil and garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges.

GRILLED HALLOUMI WITH SPICED COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Firstly, put the kettle on then cut broccoli into florets and thickly slice stalk. Pour boiling water into a steamer, steam broccoli for 6 mins, add the peas and steam for 2 mins more.
• Meanwhile, mix the couscous with the spices in a bowl, pour over the hot stock, then cover and leave to stand for 5 mins.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle pan. Cut halloumi into 6-8 slices and cook quickly on each side for 2 mins until lightly tinged brown.
• Mix vegetables and tomatoes into couscous, fork in the lemon juice, oil and coriander. Pile onto plates and top with halloumi.

GRILLED HALLOUMI AND SWEET CORN TACOS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium heat.
• Whisk the zest and juice of 1 lime together in a small bowl with the crema and sriracha. Set the sauce aside.
• Grill the corn, rotating the ears every few minutes, until all sides are charred, 10 to 12 minutes on a grill with the lid closed or 12 to 15 minutes on a grill pan. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Oil the grill grates or pan. Grill the cheese until grill marks appear, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
• Grill the tortillas until just charred in spots, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Cut the remaining 2 limes into wedges. Slice the corn kernels off the cobs.
• To assemble the tacos, place 2 tortillas on a plate and top each with some corn kernels, 1 slice of halloumi, 2 to 3 slices of avocado, some radish slices and a sprinkle of scallions and cilantro. Finish with a drizzle of the sauce. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. Serve with lime wedges.
