- Cut 16 pieces of watermelon into 1 1/2 inch squares about 1/2-inch thick. Place in a mixing bowl, and add olive oil, salt and grains of paradise or black pepper.

Thread one piece of watermelon and piece of feta cheese on each skewer. Garnish with basil leaves. Serve right away or place in the refrigerator up to 3 hours before serving.
