Halloumi, Peach and Pepper Skewers with Mint Dressing

Makes: 8 skewers

Prep time: 15 minutes. Cook time: 10 minutes

 

Ingredients for the mint dressing:

  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped

  • 2 tsp English mustard

  • 4 tbsp chopped mint

  • Grated zest of 1 lemon and half its juice

  • Good pinch of chilli flakes

  • 120ml extra virgin olive oil

  • Salt and pepper

Ingredients:

  • 2 peppers, cored and cut into 12 pieces each

  • 1 can (415g) Del Monte® Peach Halves in Juice, drained and patted dry, each quartered

  • 2 packs halloumi, drained and cut into 8 chunks each

 

Method:

  1. Soak the wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes.

  2. Prepare your barbecue or preheat an overhead grill. Mix all the dressing ingredients together.

  3. Thread each skewer with 3 pieces each of pepper and peach and 2 pieces of halloumi, alternating them as you go.

  4. Brush the skewers with a little of the dressing. Transfer them to the barbecue, or a foil-lined grill pan under the grill. Cook for around 10 minutes, turning the skewers now and then and dabbing on a little more of the dressing when you do until the halloumi is golden brown and the peach and peppers are starting to colour.

  5. Remove to a warmed plate and trickle on a little more of the dressing before serving.
