Dinner

These low carb kebabs are rich with salty halloumi and complemented by sweet onion and bell peppers. The kebabs are oven baked until tender and golden but would equally make a great addition to a summer BBQ. Perfect served with a simple green salad or a portion of cauliflower rice.

Ingredients

  • halloumi (225g diced into twelve 1-inch chunks)
  • lemon juice (2 tsp)
  • fresh thyme leaves (2 tsp)
  • red onion (1 medium peeled and quartered)
  • olive oil (1 tbsp)
  • garlic (1 clove minced)
  • red bell pepper (1/2 medium deseeded and diced into 8)
  • yellow bell pepper (1/2 medium deseeded and diced into 8)
  • black pepper (1/8 tsp)

METHOD

Cover 4 wooden kebab skewers with water and leave to soak for 20 minutes.

Add the diced Halloumi to a large mixing bowl with the bell peppers, onion, garlic, thyme, lemon juice, olive oil and black pepper. Rub the oil and seasonings into the cheese and vegetables with your hands. Set aside until the skewers are ready.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 for fan assisted.

Dividing equally, thread the vegetables and cheese onto the skewers.

Arrange the skewers across a shallow oven tray and bake for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the cheese is just soft and golden.
