Description
Watermelon Feta Skewers are a fresh and colorful appetizer made with juicy watermelon, creamy feta, mint, and a light balsamic drizzle. They deliver a sweet, salty, and refreshing bite that works well for summer parties, picnics, and quick entertaining.
Ingredients
4 cups watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes
8 ounces feta cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes
24 fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
24 small skewers or toothpicks
Instructions
1. Add the balsamic vinegar and sugar to a small saucepan.
2. Simmer the mixture over medium heat until it reduces and thickens slightly, then let it cool.
3. Cut the watermelon into even cubes and cut the feta into similar-sized cubes.
4. Thread one watermelon cube, one mint leaf, and one feta cube onto each skewer or toothpick.
5. Arrange the skewers on a serving platter.
6. Drizzle the cooled balsamic glaze lightly over the skewers just before serving.
Notes
Serve the skewers chilled for the best texture and flavor.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze just before serving to keep the feta and watermelon looking fresh.
Use firm feta so the cubes hold their shape on the skewers.
