Grilled Halloumi With Greek Honey
If you’re looking for the perfect, easy welcome nosh when friends arrive, this grilled halloumi with honey recipe is the answer. I prepared this when my friends arrived for a dinner party, one of our episodes on season 4 of My Greek Table, and I served it with one of the great sparkling wines of Greece, the sparkling xinomavro rosé from Amyndeon.

- 6 ounces halloumi cheese
- 1 Tbsp Greek pine honey to garnish

Slice the halloumi into ½-inch-thick slices.

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil on the grill pan and place the halloumi slices on the hot grill. Reduce the heat to medium and grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until charred.
