Halloumi Salad
- 2 bunches Lettuce- Baby Greens Or Anything Tender & Fresh
- 1 container Cherry Tomatoes- Whatever Looks Good
- 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1/3 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
- 1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 1 block Halloumi Cheese
- Rinse salad greens and arrange on plates.
- Halve cherry tomatoes. Toss over greens.
- Place lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, s&p in mason jar. Cover tightly, and shake to combine/emulsify. Let stand while you prepare cheese.
- Slice Halloumi into bite size pieces- I cut the block in half the long way and then cut into small squares. Not too thin or it will stick to the pan.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium/high heat for a minute or so, then plop in your cheese slices. No need to add oil- trust me.
- Let it brown for 1-2 minutes on the first side. You can go for a nice light golden color or brown and crispy. Just watch it so you don't burn it.
- Once you get the color you want, flip slices over and finish on other side- maybe 1 minute.
- Take hot slices of cheesy heaven out of the pan, arrange on salad, top with dressing to taste.
- You can also make larger batches by mixing salad ahead of time and dressing it, topping with hot cheese just before serving.
- Oh, so good!
