Ingredients
- 200 grams Halloumi cheese
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 1 spray canister Olive oil spray
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 small Cucumber
- 4 leaves Romaine lettuce
- 0.5 large Lemon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by gently rinsing the halloumi cheese and patting it dry with paper towels. Cut it into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Step 2
Preheat a non-stick grill pan over medium heat. Lightly coat the pan with olive oil spray.
Step 3
Once hot, add the halloumi slices to the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Step 4
While the halloumi is grilling, prepare the vegetables by slicing the tomato and cucumber into thin rounds.
Step 5
Remove the grilled halloumi from the pan and set aside on a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
Step 6
Lightly toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or on a grill until just crispy.
Step 7
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into a small bowl and mix in the salt and black pepper to make a simple dressing.
Step 8
Assemble the sandwiches by layering the romaine lettuce, grilled halloumi, tomato slices, and cucumber slices on one piece of toasted bread.
Step 9
Drizzle the lemon dressing over the layered ingredients, then top with the second slice of toasted bread.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your low fat grilled halloumi sandwich.
