Follow The Directions

01

Step
1 mins

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step
4 mins

Add the halloumi sticks to the hot skillet, ensuring they are in a single layer. Cook until the cheese turns a light golden brown on all sides, flipping occasionally. (2-4 minutes)

03

Step
1 mins

Remove from heat and sprinkle immediately with fresh lemon juice, dried oregano, and a generous grind of black pepper. (1 minute)

04

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a smoky flavor, try grilling the halloumi sticks instead of pan-frying. Just be sure to oil the grill grates well to prevent sticking.
Halloumi is best served immediately, as it can become rubbery as it cools.
If you don't have fresh lemons, bottled lemon juice can be used, but the flavor won't be quite as bright.
