halloumi cheese sandwich

This is a quick and easy halloumi sandwich recipe that showcases the flavor and texture of the halloumi! Halloumi slices, onions, and bread are cooked on a grill pan (or skillet) and layered with lettuce, tomato, and a tangy garlic mayo.

Halloumi Sandwich

onion rounds, 1/4 inch thick (see note 1)

bread

olive oil,

mayonnaise

garlic powder (see note 2)

lemon juice

black pepper,

sauce,

tomato slices

lettuce leaves

Heat a cast-iron grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. While the grill pan/skillet is pre-heating, continue with the next steps. (If you are not using cast-iron, see note 3.)

Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder, a pinch of black pepper, and a few dashes hot sauce (optional) to a small bowl. Mix well to combine. Taste the mayo and add more lemon, pepper, and/or hot sauce if desired. Set the mayo aside.

Pat the halloumi slices dry, then brush both sides of the halloumi and onions slices with oil and sprinkle both sides with black pepper.

Oil the grill pan or skillet well. Place the halloumi slices, onion slices, and bread slices on the pre-heated grill pan or skillet. If you don't have enough room on your pan and need to cook the ingredients in stages, save the halloumi to cook last.

Let the ingredients cook, undisturbed, for 2 - 3 minutes, or until nice grill marks appear. 

Flip the ingredients and cook for an additional 2 - 3 minutes. The halloumi should have a soft appearance, and when you touch it with tongs or a spatula, it should have some give to it. Remove the ingredients onto a plate.

Spread the mayo onto one side of each slice of bread. Layer the halloumi, grilled onions, lettuce and tomato onto the sandwich and serve immediately.
