Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 medium serrano chile, seeds removed, very finely chopped
  • 1 cup thinly sliced strawberries
  • 1 package Halloumi cheese (approx. 200 grams), cut into 1/4" thick slices
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh mint
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Make dressing by whisking together 3 tbsp of oil, lime juice, honey, and chile. Season with pepper. Set aside.

  2. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add halloumi and cook for 2-3 minutes per side undisturbed until a deep brown crust forms.
