Sweet.
Tart.
And a kick of spice.
This grilled watermelon is unique and delicious.
The heat brings out the natural sweetness of the watermelon and the lime and Hatch chile give it a fun flavor twist.
This creation was inspired by a recipe on a friend’s blog, Cooking on The Weekends.
A few changes were made to use ingredients that I had on hand.
Since I don’t have an outdoor grill, I used a panini press and it worked beautifully.
