Grilled halloumi with oregano and chilli flakes
Grilled Halloumi with Lemon, Oregano & Chilli combines salty halloumi with zesty lemon, fragrant herbs, and a gentle chilli kick for a quick, flavour-packed dish.
Equipment
- Griddle pan or BBQ
Ingredients
- 1 block halloumi, sliced into 1cm slabs
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon, zest + juice
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Pinch chilli flakes
Instructions
- Pat the halloumi dry — this helps it brown instead of steam.
- Brush with olive oil on both sides.
- Heat a griddle pan or BBQ until very hot.
- Grill the halloumi for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and lightly charred.
- Transfer to a plate and immediately add lemon zest and juice, , oregano, chilli flakes and finish with chopped herbs and a tiny drizzle of olive oil (or pomegranate molasses if you want a sweet–tangy lift).
