Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium heat (350F-400F) for 10 minutes.
- Corn: Shuck corn and remove silk. Evenly brush a thin layer of olive oil onto each piece of corn and discard the excess. Sprinkle salt/pepper over the corn.
- Place on the grill and close for 10-15 minutes, rotating every few minutes. Corn should be slightly charred and easily pierced with a fork.
- Halloumi cheese: While the corn cooks, you can use the other half of the grill to cook the halloumi (if your grill is small, just wait till corn is done). Place the sliced cheese directly on the grill, cook for about 3-4 minutes each until golden and slightly charred on each side, using a spatula to flip.
- Carefully cut the kernels off the cob using a knife or a corn peeler, add to a large bowl. Dice the halloumi cheese and add to the bowl with corn.
- In the bowl with the grilled corn and halloumi, add the diced avocado, roughly chopped cilantro, fresh lime juice. Mix to combine and taste, can add fresh ground black pepper to finish or more lime. Salad is best enjoyed freshly made.

Notes
- You can use your own preferred way of grilling corn for this recipe.
- Halloumi is naturally salty, be aware of adding extra salt to this dish.
- You can also pan sear the halloumi in a skillet over medium heat.
- Avocado may brown when storing. To assist in preserving, seal the top of the dish with plastic wrap, eliminating any air in between the ingredients and the plastic wrap. Or if making ahead, wait to add the avocado to the salad until ready to serve.
