Steps:
- Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
- Heat grill to high. Carefully thread 2 watermelon cubes onto each skewer. Grill, flipping, until grill marks appear, about 1 minute per side.
- Carefully thread 1 basil leaf and 1 feta cube onto each skewer. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with oil.
Tips:
- Choose a ripe watermelon: Look for a watermelon that is heavy for its size and has a deep, resonant sound when you thump it.
- Cut the watermelon into small pieces: This will make it easier to eat and will help the flavors to meld together.
- Use a variety of cheeses: Feta is a classic choice, but you can also use goat cheese, mozzarella, or even blue cheese.
- Add some herbs or spices: Fresh mint, basil, or oregano will add a pop of flavor to the appetizer. You can also add a pinch of salt or pepper.
- Serve the appetizer immediately: The watermelon will start to wilt after a while, so it's best to serve it as soon as possible.
Conclusion:
Watermelon and feta appetizers are a refreshing and easy way to start a party or get-together. They're also a great way to use up leftover watermelon. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and visually appealing appetizer that your guests will love.
