Grilled Halloumi Cheese with a Lemon Herb Marinade Recipe

If you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer or side dish, this Grilled Halloumi Cheese recipe is perfect for you. Halloumi cheese is a semi-hard cheese that is great for grilling because it doesn't melt. The lemon herb marinade adds a fresh and tangy flavor that perfectly complements the salty taste of the cheese.

Ingredients:

• 1 block of halloumi cheese
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste

To start, slice the halloumi cheese into 1/4 inch thick pieces. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, thyme, rosemary, garlic, salt, and pepper to create the marinade. Place the halloumi cheese slices in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the cheese slices from the marinade and place them on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the cheese is slightly softened.

Remove the grilled halloumi cheese from the grill and place them on a serving platter. Garnish with additional fresh thyme and a squeeze of lemon juice, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
