Instructions
- Either fully or partially peel the cucumber and slice. I use one whole English cucumber for this recipe if I have it on hand. Put this in a medium sized bowl so you can mix the ingredients easily.
- Add the lemon, olive oil, rice vinegar, sugar, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix and if you can, let marinate 2 hours before eating so the dressing has a chance to do its magic. Serve.
- This can be made with just the cucumber, or you can add tomatoes and onions for even more flavor. We enjoy this salad both ways.
Notes
This salad can be kept in the refrigerator up to one week. Use this recipe as a great make ahead side dish or snack.
