Mexican Fruit Salad with Fresh Lime and Cayenne

Choose 1, 2, 3 or more fruits and/or vegetables鈥攈ere are some that work well:
- 1 cup mango, peeled and diced
- 1 cup pineapple, peeled and diced
- 1 cup watermelon, peeled and diced
- 1 cup cantaloupe or other melon, peeled and diced
- 1 cup cucumber
- 录 cup red onion, sliced thin
陆 cup fresh lime juice
2 tsp cayenne pepper
陆 tsp kosher or sea salt, to taste
Prepare the fruit. Slice up the fruits (and vegetables, if you're using them). For the salad you see here, I used pineapple, mango, watermelon, and cucumber. Slice them into big chunks and spears鈥攖his is street food, often eaten with your fingers. You can make the salad ahead of time, up to this point, and chill the fruit until you're ready to serve.
Assemble the salad. Place the fruit in a large, shallow bowl. Squeeze lime juice over it. Season fruit generously with the salt and cayenne pepper. Stir gently with a rubber spatula to avoid damaging fruit and taste. You'll probably want to add more cayenne pepper; keep adding, stirring, and tasting until you pick up the flavor of the cayenne pepper and a little heat. Add as much cayenne pepper as you and your dinner guests can comfortably take鈥攖hat's a key part of this salad's charm. Serve immediately.
You will be amazed at the flavors of this salad and the ease of preparation. Serve alongside a grilled chicken breast or a marinated and grilled flank steak. I prefer it on a hot day chilled and enjoyed with some iced hibiscus tea. This seasoning combination is also great on apples, pears, or stone fruit.
