2
Experience the delightful contrast of crispy, charred halloumi paired with a warm, tangy Saturday Sauce. This dish is not only easy to prepare but also perfect for summer grilling, making it a must-try for cheese lovers.
Ingredients
1–2 Tbsp. neutral cooking oil
8 oz. halloumi cheese, sliced approx. 1/2 in. thick
16 oz. Saturday Sauce
1–2 Tbsp. za’atar in extra virgin olive oil, (store-bought or homemade with 1:2 ratio za’atar to extra virgin olive oil)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Heat your grill, grill pan, or griddle over high heat. If using a grill pan or griddle, grease the surface directly with oil. If using a grill, rub the slices of halloumi with oil.
Once your cooking surface is very hot, add the sliced halloumi and grill for about 3 minutes per side, or until charred.
While the halloumi is grilling, heat your Saturday Sauce in a pot until warm. Spoon the sauce onto your serving plate to form a base. Top with the grilled halloumi slices.
Drizzle with the za’atar and extra virgin olive oil mixture, and finish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve with crusty bread, such as sourdough olive bread, to mop up the sauce and enjoy with the grilled halloumi.
