Ingredients

- 8–10 medium-sized skewers 

- 400 g halloumi cheese, cut into about 20 large cubes 

- 1 container of cherry tomatoes 

- ½ red onion, cut into large chunks 

- 1 large courgette (or 2 small ones), cut into thick half-slices or large cubes 

- A few fresh basil leaves 

- 1 small bunch of flat-leaf parsley, chopped 

- 1 small bunch of fresh coriander, chopped 

- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped 

- 60 ml (1/4 cup) La Belle Excuse Extra Virgin Green Olive Oil

- Juice of a quarter of a lemon 

- A drizzle of La Belle Excuse Extra Virgin Green Olive Oil

- A drizzle of La Belle Excuse White Balsamic Vinegar 

Steps

  1. Thread the halloumi cubes, cherry tomatoes, courgette pieces and onion chunks onto the skewers, alternating ingredients. Place the skewers in a dish and drizzle with olive oil and white balsamic vinegar. Let marinate for a few minutes. 
  2. In a bowl, mix together the basil, parsley, coriander, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well. 
  3. Grill the skewers over medium heat, either in a pan or on a barbecue at 180°C (350°F), for about 4–5 minutes per side, until the halloumi is golden and the vegetables are slightly tender. 
  4. Top the skewers with the herb sauce just before serving. Enjoy hot.
