- 2 cans chickpeas rinsed
- 12 oz sausage any kind and flavor, sliced
- 1/2 lb halloumi cheese
- 8 oz sun dried tomato whole
- 2 tbsp sun dried tomato sauce or preserved
- 3-5 tomatoes sliced in wedge
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 tsp sea salt and pepper
- 1 tsp each, oregano and paprika
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup artichoke (optional)
Start by slicing the fresh tomatoes into wedges and placing them on a sheet pan. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at 425°F for about 20 minutes, until soft, juicy, and lightly caramelized.
While the tomatoes roast, place the chickpeas in a bowl and toss with remaining olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, paprika, and two spoonful of sun-dried tomato sauce or preserve.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the seasoned chickpeas, whole sun-dried tomatoes, sausage and cubes or slices of halloumi cheese. Spread everything out evenly.
Switch the oven to broil and return the pan to the oven for 8–10 minutes, until the halloumi is golden and slightly crisp and the chickpeas are warmed through.
Remove from the oven and gently fold in the fresh spinach. The residual heat will wilt it perfectly..
Serve warm with olives or artichokes (optional), and plenty of pita or crusty bread to soak up all those delicious juices. Give dish a generous drizzle with olive oil.
Reheating Instructions (Best Methods)
Oven (best for texture):
Spread leftovers on a sheet pan and reheat at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, until warmed through and the halloumi softens again.
Stovetop:
Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat with a small drizzle of olive oil.
Microwave (quickest):
Reheat in short intervals, stirring in between. The halloumi will be softer, but still delicious.
