Course Appetizer
Cuisine Mediterranean
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Grill pan
  • Tongs
  • Small bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces halloumi cheese, sliced into ½-inch thick pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup hot honey
  • ¼ cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pat the halloumi slices dry with a paper towel and brush both sides lightly with olive oil.
  • Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
  • Place the halloumi slices in the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden brown with clear grill marks.
  • Transfer the grilled halloumi to a serving plate.
  • Drizzle the hot honey evenly over the slices.
  • Sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top and serve right away.

Notes

Halloumi holds its shape best when the pan is properly preheated, so give it a full minute before adding the cheese. If your hot honey is very thick, warm it slightly for easier drizzling. Leftovers can be reheated briefly in a skillet to restore the crisp edges, though the pistachios are best added fresh.
