A delightful dish combining tender chicken, creamy halloumi, and a sweet honey glaze, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated to maintain even cooking.
Arrange the chicken fillets and halloumi slices in a ceramic baking dish.
Place the halloumi on top of the chicken for a creamy topping.
Sprinkle the lemon zest and thyme evenly over the chicken and halloumi.
Use fresh herbs for a more vibrant flavor.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and honey until well combined.
Warm the honey slightly if it's too thick to mix.
Drizzle the honey glaze over the chicken and halloumi.
Ensure the glaze covers the chicken evenly for a consistent flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Check the chicken's doneness by cutting into the thickest part to ensure it's no longer pink.
Serve the chicken and halloumi with a fresh rocket salad on the side.
Garnish with a wedge of lemon for an extra burst of freshness.
