3-Ingredient Pan-Fried Halloumi
This quick pan-fried halloumi makes an excellent Mediterranean-style snack or an elevated addition to salads and bowls. Because halloumi has a naturally high melting point, it doesn’t collapse when heated. Instead, it develops a crisp, salty crust while remaining tender and slightly squeaky inside. In just minutes, a simple block of cheese turns into something truly special.
Ingredients
Halloumi cheese, sliced into ½-inch pieces — 8 oz (225 g)
Olive oil or butter — 1 tablespoon
Dried oregano or fresh thyme (optional) — ½ teaspoon
