A refreshing and vibrant salad that perfectly complements spicy dishes. The sweetness of watermelon and the crispness of jicama are balanced by a zesty lime-mint dressing and a touch of chili.
In a large bowl, combine the cubed watermelon, julienned jicama, and thinly sliced red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey (or agave), red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the watermelon and jicama mixture. Gently toss to combine.
Stir in the chopped mint and cilantro.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with extra mint or cilantro if desired.

For best flavor, use ripe, but firm, watermelon.
If you don't have jicama, you can substitute with other crisp vegetables like cucumber or radishes.
Make the dressing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Add a sprinkle of Tajin seasoning for an extra kick.
