This super simple side dish packs a serious punch! I served this alongside grilled chicken, hamburgers and a garden salad. This was so easy to make and I love when I can make something ahead of time and this dish is better if made in advance! There is a small hint of sweet, but a punch of heat with the chili pepper and red chili flakes.
INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 red Thai chili pepper, finely chopped
1 large cucumber, sliced or spiralized
2 shallots, finely diced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
DIRECTIONS
Combine the rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, Thai pepper, shallots and red pepper flakes, mix well.
Add the sliced cucumbers and mix well to coat all of the cucumbers. Store in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
Enjoy!
