- Slice the cucumbers thinly. This will help them absorb the flavors of the marinade more easily.
- Use a variety of herbs. Fresh herbs like basil, dill, and chives add a lot of flavor to the cucumber bites. Feel free to experiment with different combinations to find your favorite.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the cucumber bites, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
