Ingredients

  • 2 large cucumbers, chopped or sliced
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 2 tbsp roasted peanuts, chopped
  • For the Dressing:
    • 4 tbsp Thai sweet chili sauce (found in the Asian aisle)
    • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
    • 2 tbsp sugar
    • 1 dash sesame oil
    • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the Thai sweet chili sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and salt to make the dressing.
  3. Toss the dressing with the cucumbers and onions until well coated.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a dash of lime juice or fresh cilantro.

  • For a spicier kick, increase the amount of Thai sweet chili sauce or add some red pepper flakes.
