These halloumi bites emerge ultra-crispy on the outside with a gooey, salty-cheese center—then glazed with a sweet-spicy citrus kiss.
🔪 Prep the Coating:
Combine finely chopped pistachios, panko, garlic powder, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Beat the egg in another.
🧀 Coat the Halloumi:
Dip each halloumi stick in the egg, then roll in the pistachio mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
🍽️ Air Fry:
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the coated halloumi in a single layer, spray lightly with oil, and air fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
🍯 Make the Glaze:
In a small saucepan, heat honey, chili flakes, lime juice, zest, and salt over low heat until just bubbling. Stir well and remove from heat.
💫 Glaze & Serve:
Drizzle the hot honey-lime glaze generously over the warm halloumi bites. Garnish with extra pistachios and herbs if desired.
