Cooking Steps
- To a medium pot, add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, add bulgur. Cover, remove from heat and let stand for 15-16 min, until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Cut halloumi into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Using a strainer, rinse halloumi in cold water, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon (use all for 4 servings).
- To a small bowl, add tahini sauce, mayo and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice. Whisk to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers. Cook 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to a plate.
- To the same pan, add halloumi. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan. For 4 servings, cook in batches.) Cook 1-3 min per side, until golden.
- Fluff bulgur with a fork.
- Stir in lemon zest, tomatoes, peppers and parsley. Stir to combine.
- Divide bulgur between bowls.
- Top with halloumi.
- Drizzle creamy tahini dressing over top.
