Hot Honey Halloumi Tacos

Instructions

Prepare the Avocado & Yogurt Sauce

1. Step
   Slice the avocado and set aside.
2. Step
   In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt with chopped mint leaves.
3. Step
   Add a splash of water if needed to reach drizzling consistency.
4. Step
   Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Slice and Marinate the Cheese

1. Step
   Cut the halloumi-style cheese into strips (or cubes, depending on preference).
2. Step
   In a shallow bowl, whisk together maple syrup, chipotle paste, smoked paprika, and a bit of olive oil.
3. Step
   Coat the cheese pieces evenly in this glaze. Reserve any extra glaze for later drizzling.

Cook the Cheese

1. Step
   Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush with oil if needed.
2. Step
   Fry the glazed cheese pieces 2–3 minutes per side, until golden, slightly crisp, and caramelized. Be careful not to burn them — adjust heat as needed.

Warm the Tortillas

1. Step
   While the cheese is cooking, toast or warm the tortillas briefly in a dry pan or in the oven.

Assemble the Tacos

1. Step
   On each tortilla, layer mixed greens first.
2. Step
   Add slices of avocado.
3. Step
   Place 2–3 pieces of the cooked cheese over the greens.
4. Step
   Drizzle with the mint-yogurt sauce.
5. Step
   Sprinkle pomegranate seeds on top for brightness and texture.

Finish & Serve

1. Step
   If there’s leftover glaze, drizzle a bit more over the assembled tacos.
2. Step
   Serve immediately while the cheese is warm and slightly melty.
