Grilled Zucchini, Halloumi, and Prosciutto Skewers
These Grilled Zucchini, Halloumi, and Prosciutto Skewers are the perfect tasty nibble. Marinated zucchini is grilled until tender along with salty halloumi cheese. Both are threaded with prosciutto and served as a delicious appetizer.
Ingredients
- 2 small zucchini, sliced into 1/2 inch medallions
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp fresh oregano, minced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 8 oz Halloumi cheese
- 4 oz Prosciutto
Instructions
- In a large glass bowl, combine lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and olive oil. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until emulsified.
- Add sliced zucchini, tossing to combine. Allow zucchini to marinate as you prepare the other ingredients.
- Set a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over your halloumi cheese. If it comes in one large block, halve it horizontally so you have two pieces. Add to pan, and allow to grill until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the other side. It should take about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Once halloumi is browned, remove it from the pan and slice into uniformly sized cubes.
- Add marinated zucchini slices to the pan and cook for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and tender. Remove from pan and allow to slightly cool.
- When ready to assemble, add one piece of prosciutto, followed by the zucchini, and ending with the halloumi cheese. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
