Ingredients

2 large peaches, sliced in 8 pieces each

300-400g Halloumi, cut into 1 inch cubes

½ large red onion, cut into 1 inch pieces

2 cups cubed Calabrese bread, 1 inch cubes

¼ cup Olive oil

Juice of one lemon

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tbsp honey

Salt and pepper

Vegetable oil for the grill

Arugula for serving

Wooden skewers, soaked in water

Instructions

Pre-heat the barbeque to medium-high heat, about 375-400F.
In a large bowl make the marinade by whisking together the olive oil, juice of one lemon, dried oregano, honey and a big pinch of both salt and pepper until combined.
Add the peach slices, cubed halloumi and onion pieces to the bowl and toss to combine. Then add the bread and gently toss a few more times to coat.
Divide and skewer the peach slices, halloumi, red onion and bread cubes over 6-8 skewers. Save any of the marinade for basting while grilling.
Oil the grill and cook the skewers on the barbeque, cooking about 2-3 minutes per side and brush with any leftover marinade when you turn the skewers, about 8-12 minutes total.
Serve skewers with fresh arugula dressed with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice.

TIPS

If you can’t find peaches, nectarines would also be delicious! If you don’t want to use bread on the skewers, replace with another peach and extra halloumi if desired.
