Cooking Steps

Prep and start rice
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 1 1/2 cups (3 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high. Using a strainer, quickly rinse rice.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 15-17 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
  • Meanwhile, cut halloumi into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Using a strainer, rinse halloumi in cold water, then pat dry with paper towels.
Finish prep
2
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch slices. Finely chop 1/4 of the onions. Set aside.
  • Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Finely chop cilantro.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime (use whole lime for 4 servings). Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Roast veggies
3
  • To an unlined baking sheet, add peppers, sliced onions, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, half the garlic and Chili-Cumin Spice Blend. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. (TIP: We love using olive oil here!)
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, stirring halfway, until veggies are tender.
Sear halloumi
4
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add halloumi to the dry pan. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan. For 4 servings, cook in batches.) Cook for 2-3 min per side, until golden.
Make lime crema and pico de gallo
5
  • Meanwhile, to a small bowl, add remaining garlic, yogurt, lime zest, 1 tsp (2 tsp) water and half the lime juice. Season with 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your lime crema!)
  • To another small bowl, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, remaining lime juice and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Add chopped onions, tomatoes and half the cilantro. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your pico de gallo!)
Finish and serve
6
  • To the rice, add remaining cilantro. Fluff with fork.
  • Divide rice, roasted veggies and seared halloumi between bowls.
  • Top with lime crema and pico de gallo.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if you like.
