Prep time: 25 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: 5 Star
Ingredients: 1 English cucumber, cut into chunks (about 1 1/2 cups); 1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut into halves (about 1 1/2 cups); a small chunk of red onion, thinly sliced on a mandoline; a small bundle of parsley, chopped (about 1/4 cup); 1 tablespoon white vinegar; 2 tablespoons olive oil; salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste; 1/4 cup mayo; 1/4 cup Greek yogurt; 2-3 individual Calabrian chiles, stems discarded, smashed / minced (I use a jarred variety); 1 clove garlic, grated; a splash of castelvetrano olive brine (optional, see notes); salt to taste; For protein, I use a batch of this ridiculously good Air Fryer Chicken (For a vegetarian alternative, this Air Fryer Tofu works beautifully too!); For a carb, I love the Banza Rice Mix for this – it doesn’t really make sense but I enjoyed the tomato chipotle variety!
