Keto Zucchini, Bacon and Halloumi Skewers
These flavorful Keto kebabs make a great lunch or dinner option, served with your favorite low carb sides. Our low carb skewers are loaded with tender zucchini and halloumi, marinated in garlic, lemon and thyme. After marinating, the halloumi pieces are wrapped in bacon before being threaded onto wooden skewers and oven-baked until golden.
Can I Use a Different Cheese?
We have used halloumi cheese for our Keto kebabs as its structure and texture make it perfect for baking as it remains firm. If you would like to use an alternative cheese, we would recommend selecting another firm cheese with a high melt point. Queso blanco and paneer cheese would be good options and can be marinated and cooked as you would halloumi. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.
Serving Suggestions
Our Keto kebabs are perfect served as a lunch option with a light low carb salad or Keto pitta breads. Alternatively, these can be served as a dinner with a portion of cauliflower rice. These would also make a great addition to a BBQ grill, served with your favorite low carb BBQ sides!
