WATERMELON AND FETA SALAD WITH SERRANO CHILE VINAIGRETTE
"Sweet, salty, tangy, and hot. This salad hits all the points of your palate," says chef Hugh Acheson, head chef of Five&Ten in Athens, Georgia. InStyle magazine claims this is the "Summer's Best Salad" in their June 09 Issue. The season's most refreshing dish combines tasty watermelon and feta spiked with chiles. This appetizing recipe goes well with grilled chicken, but you can also serve it as a sophisticated dessert.

HOW TO GRILL WATERMELON (EASY GRILLED WATERMELON)
Juicy, charred, and a little smoky, this Grilled Watermelon with Chili and Honey-Lime Sauce is a quick and easy summer dish that will truly stand out! Pro tip: Use a mini watermelon. A "small" 2 1/2-pound watermelon will yield plenty of grilled watermelon to feed a small crowd! Serve it as a side with harissa chicken or grilled fish, or as a summery dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of honey.

Steps:
- Heat an outdoor gas grill or an indoor griddle or cast iron grill to high.
- Slice the melon. Wash the melon and trim the ends so that you're able to set the melon flat on your cutting surface. Cut the melon it into two halves, then cut the halves into quarters. From there slice into 1/2 -inch triangles with the rind on (do not remove the rind/skin).
- Grill. Arrange the melon wedges or triangles on the prepared hot grill in one single layer. Grill over high direct heat for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, watching for some grill marks to appear.
- While the melons are on the grill, quickly prepare the chili and honey-lime sauce. In a small microwave safe bowl, combine the honey, lime juice, and Aleppo pepper flakes (or red pepper flakes). Mix with a spoon then warm the mixture in the microwave for just a few seconds (no more than 10 seconds). Or, you can put your honey in a glass jar and cover tightly and leave it in a bowl of warmed water until it has loosened).
- Arrange the grilled watermelon.

Steps:
- Make vinaigrette:
- Whisk together all vinaigrette ingredients and chill in an airtight container at least 8 hours to allow flavors to develop. Shake or whisk before using.
- Prepare watermelon and pickled rind:
- Remove and discard outer green skin from watermelon with a sharp knife. Using a vegetable peeler, shave enough 2-inch-long pieces from white rind to measure 1/2 cup. Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Reserve remaining watermelon.
- Stir together rice vinegar and sugar in a 1-quart heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Carefully pour boiling-hot vinegar mixture over white rind shavings and let stand at least 1 hour.
- Trim and discard remaining white rind from watermelon, then cut watermelon into 18 pieces (about 3-inch squares).
- Make salad:
- Toss arugula with just enough vinaigrette to coat and salt to taste.
- Divide arugula among 6 plates, then place 1 watermelon piece in center of each plate. Top each with a scant 1/4 cup feta, then top with another watermelon piece and more feta. Top each with a final watermelon piece for a stack of 3 on each plate.
- Remove pickled rind from vinegar with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Top watermelon stacks with pickled rind and chile slices, then drizzle remaining vinaigrette around salads.
