Halloumi and Chick Peas
Serves: 2
Ingredients
To make Halloumi and Chick Peas, you'll need:
- 200g green beans, trimmed
- 100g tinned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- Juice and zest of a lemon
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- ½ red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced
- 1 red onion, chopped or sliced finely
- 4 ready-roasted peppers
- 150g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 150g rocket and spinach leaves
- 150g halloumi cheese, sliced
Method
- Place enough water to cover the green beans in a medium- size saucepan.
- Bring the water to the boil.
- Add the beans and boil for 3 minutes.
- After 2 minutes, add the chickpeas.
- Drain the beans and place the hot water aside.
- Place the chickpeas and the green beans in a large bowl.
- Mix the lemon juice, lemon zest, a tablespoon of olive oil, and a tablespoon of red chilli, and pour onto the green beans and chickpeas.
- Place the red onion in a bowl, then pour on top the water you have set aside from boiling the beans.
- Allow the red onion to soften (this should take around 4 minutes) and drain the excess water away.
- Add in the ready-roasted peppers, halved cherry tomatoes, rocket, spinach, and the (now softened) red onion into the bowl containing the green beans and the chickpeas.
- Toss everything to ensure an even coating of the dressing.
