Step 1

Over medium heat, add the sesame seeds in a pan and stir occasionally, about 3-5 minutes, until toasted. Let cool and transfer to a small cup.

Step 2

Pat the Manouri cheese dry. In a shallow dish, pour the olive oil, then dip the Manouri cheese in the olive oil on both sides until fully coated. Season with a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Heat a cast iron grill/griddle over medium heat. Grill the Manouri for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until grill marks form.

Step 4

Transfer the Manouri to a plate. Drizzle with honey and top with sesame seeds. Serve with toasted pita or bread.
