Yunnan-style Grilled Cheese Skewers

Yunnan-style Grilled Cheese Skewers

Yunnan-style Grilled Cheese Skewers are a popular Chinese street food made with cubes of cheese coated in a spicy, aromatic marinade and grilled to perfection on skewers over an open flame. The cheese used is typically a mild and slightly salty variety, such as Halloumi or Queso Blanco. These skewers are a perfect combination of flavors – the sweetness of the marinade, the savory cheese, and the smoky taste from the grill. They are a crowd-pleaser for cheese lovers and those who enjoy spicy dishes alike.
