minutesIngredients
300g Feta, in alternative Haloumi or Kash Cheese
4-5 Zucchini
1 Tablespoon Parsley
1 Teaspoon Honey
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice (or more, this depends on your taste)
2 Tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
A pinch Salt
Pepper
Directions
- Cut zucchini halves lengthwise into thin slices. Using a pan, grill each slice over high heat until grill-marked (no oil needed here). Set aside to chill down.
- Assemble your Skewers. Cut cheese into cubes (I used Feta). Roll 1 or 2 zucchini slices around each cheese cubes, then thread each one of them onto skewers.
- Prepare lemon honey sauce mixing oil, salt, pepper, honey, lemon and chopped parsley. Mix it until well combined.
- Serve. You can serve these grilled zucchini and feta skewers cold or warm.
For cold zucchini and feta skewers: just add the sauce on top right before serving, when the skewers are cold.
While, if you want to try a different version you can grill the zucchini and feta skewers on a pan and serve them warm. In this case you will add the lemon honey sauce before serving. Both ways are delicious.
