Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by selecting a sweet and ripe watermelon. Carefully slice it in half, then remove the rind and cut the flesh into bite-sized cubes or wedges. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the dressing.
- In a mixing bowl, combine three tablespoons of olive oil with the zest and juice of one lime. Whisk thoroughly. Optional: add one tablespoon of sugar or agave syrup and season with salt and pepper.
- Remove the chilled watermelon and place it in a bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the watermelon and gently toss to coat.
- Tear and scatter fresh mint leaves over the salad and finish with flaky sea salt.
- Serve immediately after garnishing to maintain freshness and vibrancy.

Notes
For best flavor, use freshly squeezed lime juice and serve chilled. Adjust sweetness as needed based on watermelon ripeness.
