These delicious little treats are the perfect summer app to serve alongside your BBQ fare.
For the dressing:
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove of garlic, pressed
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the skewers:
- 1 cup red grape tomatoes (slice if you feel they’re too large)
- 1 cup yellow grape tomatoes (slice if you feel they’re too large)
- ½ cup kalamata olives, pitted
- 3 oz halloumi cheese
- 16 mini cocktail wood skewers
Whisk together all dressing ingredients in a small bowl, set aside. On medium heat BBQ, sear the block of halloumi cheese until grill marks form, approximately 3 minutes per side. Once cheese has cooled slightly, chop into 1 inch cubes. Stack onto skewers, tomato, olive, tomato, cheese, tomato. Brush skewers with dressing, leaving some aside for dipping. Serves 6-8.
