Place the chopped walnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
LEMON CAPER BUTTER SAUCE

YOU HAD ME AT HALLOUMI
Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the halloumi until crispy and golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Cut into bite-sized chunks.
