Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh watermelon cubes (1-inch thick)
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare Watermelon – Wash the watermelon thoroughly and cut it into uniform 1-inch cubes, removing seeds as needed
  • Step 2: Prepare Feta – Crumble the feta cheese into bite-sized pieces that will fit comfortably on skewers
  • Step 3: Assemble Skewers – Thread watermelon cubes, crumbled feta, and mint leaves onto skewers in alternating pattern
  • Step 4: Add Glaze – Drizzle assembled skewers evenly with balsamic glaze for flavor and presentation
  • Step 5: Chill and Serve – Refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving to enhance flavors and texture

Notes

  • Select seedless watermelon or remove seeds carefully to prevent messy eating experience
  • Use block feta instead of pre-crumbled for better texture and fresher taste
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 10 minutes to prevent splintering during assembly
  • Pat watermelon cubes dry with paper towels to prevent excess moisture from diluting flavors
