If you are a vegetarian, and love fajitas then this recipe is just for you! Halloumi cheese is used as a replacement to meat with sweet peppers and red onions, seasoned and then roasted on a tray in the oven. Its super simple and ready in just 20 minutes. It’s a great midweek meal that all the family can enjoy.

Ingredients

  • 250g (8.8oz) halloumi cheese, sliced into strips
  • 3 bell peppers (I like to use one each of red, yellow and green), sliced
  • One red onion, sliced
  • Rapeseed oil 

Fajita Seasoning:

  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • ½ tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • ¼ tsp Himalayan pink salt
  • ¼ tsp cracked black pepper
 

To serve:

  • 8 tortilla wraps
  • Toppings of your choice: sour cream (as image) or avocado / yogurt or salsa

Serves: 2         

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 210 °C (450 °F) while you slice the halloumi, red onion and peppers.
  2. Next prepare your fajita seasoning by mixing your spices together in a small bowl.
  3. Place the halloumi, sliced red onion and peppers on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
  4. Sprinkle the fajita seasoning over the tray until you have an even covering.
  5. With a spatula or your hands, mix everything well. Drizzle with a little more oil if needed.
  6. Place the tray in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway. If you prefer your halloumi crispy, then you may want to extend the cooking time.
