WATERMELON CUCUMBER SALAD



Watermelon Cucumber Salad image

All of my friends loved this tasty, refreshing watermelon salad, so I thought I would add it as my first Allrecipes recipe. It was inspired by another recipe on here, but strayed far enough from the original that I thought it deserved its own recipe. Enjoy.

GRILLED WATERMELON AND TOMATO SALAD



Grilled Watermelon and Tomato Salad image

This salad is an ode to summer. I love to grill the watermelon after it's been brushed with a little bit of the honey-lime vinaigrette. The sugars from the melon caramelize nicely on the grill and add the best smoky flavor.

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 large cloves garlic
1 large shallot, halved
2/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup honey
Zest of 1 lime (about 1 teaspoon)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 2 to 3 limes)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons salted butter
1 cup pecan halves
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 small seedless watermelon (about 9½ pounds)
One 5-ounce container baby arugula
One 16-ounce container Campari tomatoes, cut into wedges
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

Steps:

  • Make the honey-lime vinaigrette: Add the garlic and shallot to a food processor and pulse until minced. Turn off the motor and add the oil, honey, lime zest and lime juice. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Make the salad: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pecans and brown sugar and cook, stirring to coat, until the sugar begins to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Spread the pecans onto the prepared baking sheet and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, trim the ends from the watermelon. Stand the watermelon on a cutting board, flat-side down, and cut into quarters. Set aside 2 quarters for another use. Cut the remaining 2 quarters crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices. Brush 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette onto the slices.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or place a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Grill the watermelon slices, in batches, in a single layer until warmed through and grill marks appear, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the watermelon from the grill and let cool, about 15 minutes. Cut into bite-size cubes.
  • Arrange the arugula, grilled watermelon, tomatoes, feta cheese, pecans and red onion on a platter or in a salad bowl. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the top and toss just before serving.

COOL AND CRUNCHY MELON-CUCUMBER SALAD



Cool and Crunchy Melon-Cucumber Salad image

This summer, add cucumber to a melon salad to make it extra-crisp and cool. We cut watermelon and cantaloupe into cubes and balls for a beautifully geometric presentation that can be eaten with toothpicks. We also tossed them as a salad, dressed with yuzu juice (available at Asian supermarkets and specialty stores), though it's equally out-of-this-world with lime or lemon juice.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup watermelon cubes or balls
1/2 cup cantaloupe cubes or balls
1/2 cup sliced cucumber
1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon yuzu juice (or 1 teaspoon lime or lemon juice)
Salt and pepper
Basil leaves

Steps:

  • To make one serving, combine watermelon and cantaloupe cubes or balls with cucumber. Drizzle with olive oil and yuzu juice (or lime or lemon juice). Season with salt and pepper; stir to combine. Garnish with basil leaves.
