Chef grills halibut with halloumi and figs

For many, a main dish means dinner. This is often the biggest meal of the day. But for me, a main dish is a feeling. It is not always only for dinner.

This main dish uses halibut with spices and olive oil. You grill it until it is golden brown. Then, you add sweet honey for a great taste. Halloumi cheese makes it chewy and salty.

You need fresh halibut, sourdough bread, and sweet figs. Halloumi cheese and dates are also important. Other ingredients include lemon zest, garlic, onion, and spices. Olive oil helps to coat everything.

First, mix lemon zest and spices with the dry halibut cubes. Add some olive oil and gently toss it. Next, put bread, figs, halloumi, and dates on skewers. Arrange them with the seasoned halibut pieces.

Heat your grill to medium and brush it with olive oil. Cook skewers for 8-12 minutes total. Serve the hot skewers with honey, fresh mint, and lemon. Toum garlic spread is also a nice option.
