Simple Eats | Chicken & Halloumi Skewers

Perfect for barbecue season, or – if in true Great British style it rains – indoor grilling, these skewers are incredibly easy to assemble and are so tasty! If you’re a vegetarian, omit the chicken; if you don’t fancy chicken, try pork or steak; and go wild with whatever veg you have lying around! This recipe will make four skewers.

Ingredients

·         Two chicken breasts

·         One packet of Halloumi (I used the light version)

·         One red pepper

·         One courgette

·         Paprika (for dusting)

Method

·         If using wooden skewers, prepare them by soaking them in water

·         Meanwhile, dice the chicken on one chopping board and on another, dice the halloumi and peppers and slice the courgette

·         Thread all the ingredients on the skewers alternatively, beginning with the chicken

·         Sprinkle both sides of the skewer with paprika and grill for 15 minutes, turning once. Ensure the chicken is cooked by slicing into the biggest chunk

·         Serve

I served my skewers with toasted wholemeal pitta and drizzle of sour cream, but you could serve yours with sweet potato fries/wedges, a large mixed salad or spicy rice.
