1. Place the jalapeños directly onto the hot bbq, over a gas flame or under a hot grill until blackened and blistered all over.
2. Pop them into a bowl and cover for 5 minutes to steam, then peel off the skins and remove the seeds. Blitz the charred jalapeños, herbs, garlic, oregano, vinegar, lime juice, olive oil, and a good pinch of salt in a food processor or blender until you have a chunky sauce.
3. Taste and adjust seasoning.
4. Thread the halloumi, courgette, red onion, and red pepper onto skewers.
5. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.Preheat a BBQ, grill pan or oven grill to medium-high heat.
6. Grill the skewers for about 2–3 minutes per side until the halloumi is golden and the veg is charred at the edges.
7. Spoon the chimichurri generously over the grilled skewers and serve immediately with couscous or flatbreads, if desired.
