0.5 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Soak wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent burning during the grilling process.

• 2

  Peel and devein the shrimp, then pat them dry with a paper towel to ensure a good sear.

• 3

  Cut the halloumi cheese, red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into uniform 1-inch cubes.

• 4

  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 5

  Add the shrimp, halloumi, and chopped vegetables to the bowl and toss until everything is thoroughly coated in the marinade.

• 6

  Thread the ingredients onto the prepared skewers, alternating between the shrimp, cheese, and vegetables for even cooking.

• 7

  Preheat a grill or a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat until it is very hot.

• 8

  Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the shrimp is opaque and the halloumi has developed deep, golden grill marks.

• 9

  Remove from the heat and serve immediately while the cheese is warm and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
