  • grape tomatoes-2 cups
  • whole wheat pita bread-4 pita

1
Prep the vegetables and pita
Cutting Board
Chef’s knife

Prep the vegetables and pita: dice the cucumber, halve the tomatoes, chop the romaine, cut the pitas into wedges, rinse and drain the chickpeas, and slice the halloumi into 1/4-inch-thick pieces.

Keep the knife blade angled away from fingers while cutting the vegetables, pita, and halloumi.

1 Each english cucumber
2 cups grape tomatoes
6 cups romaine lettuce
4 Count pita bread
2 cans chickpeas
6 ounces halloumi cheese
2
Mix the chickpea-cucumber mixture
Mixing Bowl
Measuring Cups
Measuring Spoons

Toss chickpeas, cucumber and tomatoes with the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper until coated. Use a mixing bowl of at least 4 quarts.

2 cans chickpeas
1 Each english cucumber
2 cups grape tomatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
3
Toast the pita
Tongs
Large nonstick skillet

Toast pita wedges in uncrowded layers in a dry 12-inch nonstick skillet until warm and lightly crisp. Use medium heat for about 1–2 minutes per side and transfer with tongs; repeat as needed.

Use tongs when turning hot pita wedges in the skillet.

4 Count pita bread
4
Sear the halloumi
Tongs
Large nonstick skillet

Pat halloumi dry and sear in the cleared nonstick skillet over medium heat until golden and softened, about 1–2 minutes per side. Remove loose pita crumbs first; all measured oil belongs in the dressing.

Pat halloumi dry before adding it to the hot skillet to reduce splattering.

Use tongs when turning hot halloumi slices.

6 ounces halloumi cheese
5
Assemble and serve
Serving bowls

Divide romaine, chickpea salad and halloumi evenly among bowls, serving toasted pita alongside. Serve immediately while the cheese is warm.

6 cups romaine lettuce
