SMOKY PAPRIKA CHEESE SKEWERS



Smoky Paprika Cheese Skewers image

Bathed in a ruddy paprika and shallot oil, and grilled until singed, these golden cheese skewers are a savory delight. You can make them with any kind of cheese that's tolerant of high heat - also called grilling or frying cheese: Halloumi, queso panela and provolone are some widely available options.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     skewers and kebabs, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons minced shallot
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon hot paprika or ground cayenne
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander or cumin
Fine sea salt (optional)
8 ounces grilling cheese, such as halloumi, provolone, kefalotyri, queso panela or bread cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes and patted dry

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine shallot, oil, spices and a small pinch of salt, if you like. (Most grilling cheese is already pretty salty; taste it first.) Add cheese and gently toss to evenly coat.
  • Heat the grill to high. While the grill is heating, pierce marinated cheese onto metal skewers or pre-soaked wooden skewers (see Tip), about 3 to 4 per skewer. Reserve any leftover marinade at the bottom of bowl.
  • When the grill is hot, brush the grates lightly with oil and add the skewers. Cook, rotating them carefully every few minutes, until evenly browned and slightly charred in places, about 3 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and brush with remaining marinade. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Boil the pasta "al dente", or slightly undercooked, to prevent it from becoming mushy when skewered.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a rich and flavorful mac and cheese. A good combination is a blend of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan.
  • Add some cooked vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini, to the mac and cheese for a healthier twist.
  • Season the mac and cheese well with salt and pepper, and add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
  • Coat the skewers in olive oil before grilling to prevent the mac and cheese from sticking.
  • Cook the skewers over medium heat until the mac and cheese is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the skewers immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or tomato sauce.

Conclusion:

Mac and cheese skewers are a fun and easy way to enjoy this classic comfort food. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or potlucks. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and crowd-pleasing appetizer or snack that everyone will love.
