BBQ Beasty Halloumi & Pepper Skewers
Vegetarian barbecue food deserves to be more than a token side dish. These substantial halloumi and vegetable skewers use our BBQ Beasty Spice Blend for deep smoky flavour and a beautifully golden finish.
The halloumi stays satisfyingly firm while the peppers sweeten and the courgette picks up the seasoning — simple, colourful and very easy to share.
🧾 Ingredients
- 450g halloumi, cut into large cubes
- 1 red pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 yellow pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 medium courgette, cut into thick half-moons
- 1½ tbsp BBQ Beasty Spice Blend
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon
- 8 wooden or metal skewers
- Tomato and cucumber salad, to serve
🍴 Instructions
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for 20 minutes.
- Pat the halloumi dry. Put it in a bowl with the peppers and courgette.
- Mix the BBQ Beasty Spice Blend with the olive oil and finely grated zest of half the lemon. Pour over the halloumi and vegetables and toss gently.
- Thread everything loosely onto the skewers, keeping the pieces similar in size.
- Cook on a medium-hot barbecue or griddle for 8–10 minutes, turning carefully, until the halloumi is golden and the vegetables are tender with lightly charred edges.
- Squeeze over lemon juice and serve immediately.

💛 Why This Recipe Works
Large halloumi cubes resist drying out, and similarly sized vegetables cook evenly. The lemon lifts the rich cheese and smoky seasoning.
