Instructions
Creating your Vegetable and Halloumi Kebabs is simple; follow these steps for the best results:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
2. Cut the Ingredients: Prepare vegetables and cheese. Make sure all pieces are similar in size for even cooking.
3. Marinate: Add the halloumi and cut vegetables to the bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
4. Skewer the Ingredients: Thread the marinated halloumi and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between them for a colorful presentation.
5. Preheat the Grill: Set up your grill for medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
6. Grill the Kebabs: Place the skewers on the grill or in the oven. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until the halloumi is golden and vegetables are tender.
7. Serve: Remove kebabs from the grill or oven. Let them rest for a few moments and serve hot.
