Ingredients
1 Red or yellow watermelon 1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Juice of 1 large orange
Pinch of salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 cup feta cheese
Directions
- Preheat grill or build a charcoal fire . Cut the watermelon into 2-inch-thick slices. Brush the slices lightly with olive oil and set aside until ready to grill.
- Combine lime and orange juices. It should taste like a "sour" orange. Add the salt and cayenne and whisk continually while adding the oil in a thin stream. Whisk until thickened. Taste and adjust the oil and salt to your liking. Add the mint and set aside.
- Place the oiled watermelon slices on a cooking grate directly over the heat source. Grill until marked and just warmed through but still crunchy, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Let cool.
- Cut the watermelon into chunks and place in a serving bowl. Pour the dressing over the top and toss gently. Top with the feta and sprinkle with another pinch of cayenne.
The watermelon should be grilled with the skin ..when it's grilled you can cut off the skin to serve it ..I used the skewer ,so I cut the skin before grilling ...
