Ingredients

For the vinaigrette:

  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • Zest of 2 limes
  • 5 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon Maggi sauce

For the skewers:

  • 6 cups seeded and cubed ripe watermelon
  • About 12 ounces tomatillos husks removed, rinsed, and thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
  • 1 large package of small fresh mozzarella balls (about 8 ounces)

To Prepare

To make the vinaigrette:

  • Place the cilantro, ginger, honey, lime zest and juice, and Maggi sauce into a large mason jar and shake vigorously to emulsify. Alternatively, place all of the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to emulsify.

To make the skewers:

  • Slide the watermelon cubes, tomatillo slices and mozzarella balls onto wooden toothpicks or small plastic skewers, alternating between each ingredient. Serve with the lime-honey vinaigrette as a dipping sauce.
