Ingredients
- 6 cups Mixed greens
- 8 ounces Halloumi cheese
- 2 whole Anaheim chilis
- 4 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Slice the halloumi cheese into 1/4-inch-thick slabs. Pat it dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
Rub the Anaheim chilis with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Place them on the grill and cook for 4-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is blistered and charred. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 4
Grill the halloumi slices on the same hot grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown grill marks appear. Remove and set aside.
Step 5
Once the Anaheim chilis are cool enough to handle, peel away the charred skin, remove the seeds, and slice them into thin strips.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Step 7
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced Anaheim chilis, and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 8
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the greens evenly.
Step 9
Top the salad with the grilled halloumi slices and serve immediately.
