Don't be afraid of the raw jalapeno - the lime juice tames it and makes it mild. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons lime juice |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 pinch lime zest |
2 cups seedless watermelon, cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and sliced |
1/4 cup basil (or thai basil) |
1 teaspoon black sesame seed |
1/2 teaspoon sea salt |
Directions:
1. Whisk together lime juice, oil and lime zest. Set aside.
2. Place frozen watermelon cubes in single layer in large shallow dish. Pour lime juice mixture over watermelon, and gently toss to combine. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
3. Place 5 jalapeño rings each in 4 shallow serving bowls. Mound 1/2 cup watermelon in center of each bowl. Divide marinade among bowls. Sprinkle with basil, sesame seeds and salt, and serve.
