Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4-6 ciabatta rolls or bread of choice
  • 1 block halloumi cheese 6-8 oz
  • 1/3 cup ricotta cheese
  • Arugula mixed with lemon juice and olive oil
  • 1/4 cup crushed pistachios
  • Hot honey or regular
  • Balsamic vinegar or glaze
  • Fresh basil

Broiled Peaches

  • 2 yellow peaches
  • 1-2 tbsp olive oil
  • Flakey salt
  • 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning or dried herbs of choice

Directions

  1. Slice the peaches into 1/2 inch wedges. Place on a sheet pan with drizzle with olive oil, honey, flakey salt and dry herbs. Broil on high for about 10-12 minutes until the peaches soften. Alternatively, you can grill the peaches on a pan for 2-3 minutes per side. Once the peaches are ready, remove from oven and set aside while you prepare the halloumi.
  2. To fry the halloumi, slice the cheese into 1/2 inch slices. Heat a pan on medium heat with a little oil or cooking spray. Grill the halloumi for about 1-2 minutes on one side, then flip for another minute. I suggest grilling the halloumi right before serving for best texture.
  3. To assemble the sandwich, toast the ciabatta or bread and spread a layer of ricotta on the bottom slice topped with cracked black pepper.
  4. Add the marinated arugula on top followed by the broiled peaches, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, crushed pistachios, and the fried halloumi.
  5. Top the halloumi with a drizzle of honey and a few leaves of fresh basil.
