The creamy halloumi cheese pairs perfectly with the fresh mint and parsley, creating a refreshing and satisfying wrap. The lemon juice adds a burst of citrus flavor that complements the richness of the cheese.
Ingredients
- 4 6-inch pita breads
- 1 8-ounce block halloumi cheese, sliced into 1/2-inch thick pieces
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped mint
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1 teaspoon salt
Method
- 1Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat, around 400°F, and brush the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- 2Grill the halloumi cheese slices for 2-3 minutes per side, until they develop a golden-brown crust and a slightly firm texture.
- 3Meanwhile, toast the pita breads by wrapping them in foil and heating them on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until warmed through.
- 4In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, chopped mint, and chopped parsley.
- 5Spread a tablespoon of the garlic-herb mixture onto each toasted pita bread, leaving a small border around the edges.
- 6Assemble the wraps by placing a few slices of the grilled halloumi cheese onto each pita bread, followed by a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt.
- 7Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the cheese and serve immediately, with additional lemon wedges on the side.
- 8Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make the rest of the wraps.
