Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cut halloumi into 1-inch cubes and pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. Submerge wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning.
Marinade & Assembly
  1. In a small bowl, whisk extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes until well blended.
  2. Toss halloumi cubes and roasted red peppers in the marinade until evenly coated; let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Thread the marinated halloumi, roasted peppers, and cherry tomatoes onto each skewer.
Cooking
  1. Preheat grill to medium-high (about 400°F) and brush the grates with oil.
  2. Place skewers on the grill, cooking 2–3 minutes per side until cheese has charred marks and vegetables are tender.
  3. Transfer skewers to a platter, drizzle any leftover marinade, and sprinkle fresh oregano on top.
