Craving something light and full of flavor? This Thai Pineapple Cucumber Salad recipe has the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy. With its warming chili oil, bright and juicy pineapple, refreshing cucumber, and vibrant red onion, it makes a delightful, healthful side that goes with any dinner.
One of the great things about this spicy Thai pineapple salad is that it is so easy to make. I made it in just about twenty-five minutes, and that includes the time I added to chill the salad to allow the flavors to meld, mingle and develop. The first thing you are going to do is whisk your dressing directly in a salad bowl. Then you’re going to pile your pineapple cubes, diced cucumbers and red onions, and chopped cilantro. Toss well and chill for 20 minutes. Give the salad a good stir before serving, and enjoy!
To make the Thai Pineapple Cucumber Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons honey with 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, ¼ teaspoon chili oil, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt until well combined.
Add in 1 ½ cups diced fresh pineapple, 1 cup diced seeded Persian cucumber, ½ cup diced red onion, and ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro and toss to coat well.
Cover and transfer to the fridge for 20 minutes to let the flavors meld.
To serve, give the salad a good stir, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Enjoy!
