- 6 OZ. of mixed salad greens

- Salt
Method
1
Slice the chili pepper in half, remove the seeds and membranes, then soak it in water for about 30 minutes to let it purge.
2
When it is time to serve, remove the seeds and skin from the cantaloupe and cut it into chunks. Place them in a large bowl together with the mixed greens, washed and drained.
3
Chop the chili pepper, then blend it with 1/4 cup of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and the juice of 1 lime. Pour the dressing on the prepared salad and garnish with some lime zest.
4
Bring to the table, stir in the presence of your guests, and serve immediately.
5
If you want the dressing even spicier, chop the chili pepper without soaking it in water. You can also use an organic lemon instead of the lime.
