SkinnyMediterranean: Halloumi & Vegetable Skewers

Sharing is caring!

Skinnymixer’s Halloumi & Vegetable Skewers features in the Mezze section of the cookbook SkinnyMediterranean.

The Halloumi & Vegetable Skewers is a cookbook exclusive recipe…

Halloumi & Vegetable Skewers are colourful, quick to make, and bring a real holiday vibe to the dinner table. With charred vegetables and salty golden halloumi, they’re a lighter meal that still feels satisfying.

These are perfect for your next BBQ or even a meat-free dinner. We cut the halloumi a bit bigger to help keep it on the skewer.

These skewers are inspired by Mediterranean flavours and are a brilliant option for weeknight dinners, entertaining, or summer barbecues. Halloumi is the perfect cheese for grilling—it holds its shape, crisps on the outside, and stays soft in the middle. Paired with a mix of colourful vegetables, it makes for a dish that looks as good as it tastes.

Cook them on the barbecue, under the grill, air fryer or even in the oven. Serve with a simple salad, flatbreads, or some of the Mezze (Share Plates) section of SkinnyMediterranean to turn it into a complete meal. They can be prepped ahead of time and cooked just before serving, making them ideal for fuss-free entertaining.

FAQ section:

• Can I prepare halloumi skewers ahead of time? Absolutely, however it is best to marinate the halloumi and vegetables for 30 min (no longer than 2 hr). Leaving the marinade longer may cause the halloumi to go a bit soft and crumbly.
• What vegetables work best on skewers? We use zuccini, cherry tomatoes, red onion and capsicum.
• Can I cook halloumi skewers in the oven? Yes, we have the cooking times in the recipe and also for the air fryer.
• How do I stop halloumi sticking to the grill? After it forms a crust, it should release from the grill easily.
