Equipment
- 6 small metal or wooden skewers

- 2 chicken breasts medium, skinless and boneless
- 225 g halloumi 1 pack
- 200 g fresh chorizo sausage 4 sausages
For the marinade
- 2 tablespoon rosemary fresh
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Cut each sausage into 3 or 2cm pieces and each chicken breast into 6.
- Next, cut the halloumi into 3 slices along the length and then cut each slice into 6.
- Thread the pieces onto 6 skewers, starting with 2 lots of halloumi, chicken and sausage, then finishing with halloumi.
- Mix the olive oil, rosemary and pepper together and coat the chicken and halloumi skewers with a pastry brush before cooking.
- Cook under a medium grill for about 10 minutes, turning regularly until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese has a crispy crust.
Notes
💭 TOP TIPS
- Drain the liquid from the halloumi and let it rest on kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. This helps to get a crisp outside when cooking.
- If you soak the wooden skewers in hot water for 5 minutes before using them they are less likely to burn on the barbecue or grill.
