Grilled Cheese Skewers:
These grilled cheese skewers are a delicious and fun way to enjoy melty, smoky cheese. Perfect as an appetizer or side at BBQs and gatherings, these skewers offer a crispy char on the outside with gooey cheese inside. Simple to prepare and sure to impress.
Ingredients
- 20 ounces Queso Fresco or Halloumi cheese cut into 1-inch wide strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 metal or wooden skewers if wooden, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Thread cheese strips onto skewers.
- Brush cheese skewers with olive oil and season with salt and pepper if desired, but grilling cheeses are often salty enough.
- Place skewers on grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until all sides are golden brown and slightly crisp. Turn carefully to avoid breaking.
- Remove from grill and serve immediately as is or with dips such as chimichurri, hot sauce, or honey drizzle.
Notes
- Soaking wooden skewers prevents burning on the grill.
- Use sturdy grilling cheese that melts but holds shape like Queso Fresco or Halloumi.
- You can add vegetables on the skewers, such as bell peppers or cherry tomatoes, for variation.
- Serve alongside grilled meats or as a standalone appetizer.
