Bacon-wrapped halloumi bites
Halloumi does not melt and bacon wants a fierce heat, which makes this a rare case of two ingredients asking for exactly the same oven.

Method
6 steps · 25 minutes
- Cut the halloumi into fingers about 3/4 inch thick. Any thinner and they dry out before the bacon has crisped.
- Stretch each slice along the back of a knife until it is half as long again, then wrap it round a finger of cheese.
- Sit them seam-side down on a rack over a baking sheet, so the fat drips away instead of frying the undersides soft.
- Bake at 425F for 15 minutes, turning them once.
- Do not salt them at any point. Bacon and halloumi are both cured, and this is one of the few things that arrives already seasoned.
- Paprika and a lot of black pepper at the end is all they need.
