Grilled Halloumi Cheese
Grilled Halloumi Cheese
Halloumi is a Cypriot semi-hard, unripened brined cheese traditionally made from a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk. It has a high melting point, making it ideal for grilling or frying. I like to cut mine into cubes, skewer them, grill, and drizzle with honey. Halloumi is also great in salads or as a meat substitute in pita sandwiches and wraps.
Equipment
- metal skewers
- chimney starter
- charcoal
- charcoal grill
Ingredients
- 8 oz halloumi cheese

Instructions
- Cut the halloumi into 1 1/2” cubes. Pat dry with paper towels. Place on metal skewers and brush with olive oil.
- Let your charcoal turn gray in your chimney starter. Pour on the grill and place on the grill grate. Allow the grate to get hot for a couple minutes. Place the halloumi skewers directly over the charcoal.
- Grill for a couple minutes on all 4 sides; about 8-10 minutes in total.
