Instructions
- 1
Heat a dry grill pan over high heat. Add halloumi slices in a single layer (no oil needed — halloumi has enough fat). Cook 2–3 minutes per side without moving until deep golden-brown grill marks form and the cheese is just softened in the center. Work quickly — halloumi is best served hot.

Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, sumac, and black pepper in a large bowl. Add romaine, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and mint. Toss to coat.

Arrange salad on plates and lay hot halloumi slices on top. Serve immediately while the cheese is still warm and squeaky.
