Steps:

• To cube the cucumber: Cut the ends off the cucumber. Then thinly slice off all four long sides of the cucumber so that it resembles a long rectangle. Cut into thirteen 1-inch cubes. (Reserve the remaining cucumber for another use.)
• To cube the watermelon: Cut off the ends. Cut the watermelon into 1-inch round slices. Use a cucumber cube as a guide to cut the watermelon into thirteen 1-inch cubes. (Discard the rind and reserve the remaining watermelon for another use.)
• To cube the feta: Cut into four 1-inch cubes using a cucumber cube as a guide.
• To build the salad, make the bottom layer: Arrange 3 cubes across the top of a serving platter and then 5 cubes down, alternating cucumber and watermelon cubes (you should have something that resembles the number "7"). Fill in the "7" to make a 3-by-5-inch rectangle by alternating cucumber and watermelon cubes to create a checkerboard pattern. Occasionally swap out a cube of cucumber or watermelon with a cube of feta to integrate the 4 cubes into the pattern. There should be 15 cubes. To build the top layer, repeat the checkerboard pattern with the remaining 15 cucumber and watermelon cubes making sure that all the feta cubes are covered and every bottom cucumber cube is topped with a watermelon cube and vice versa.
• Drizzle the cubed salad with the oil and then sprinkle with the pepper, basil and mint leaves.

30-MINUTE GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH WATERMELON AND FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Put the grated garlic into a large resealable bag. Add 1/4 cup oil, the lemon zest and juice, oregano and the chicken. Seal the bag tightly and use your hands to vigorously massage the marinade into the chicken, making sure that the chicken is evenly coated. Marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, remove the rind from the watermelon, cut the flesh into 1-inch cubes and put it in a large bowl. (You should have about 6 cups total.) Quarter the cucumber lengthwise and cut it into 1-inch pieces. Place on top of the watermelon in the mixing bowl. Cut the feta into 1/2-inch cubes, put on top of the cucumber and top with the olives. (Do not mix yet.) Set aside.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on a plate. Lightly oil the grill grates. Sprinkle the chicken liberally with salt and pepper and place the pieces skin-side down on the grill, leaving some space between the pieces. Cook until the skin is lightly charred and releases itself from the grill, about 2 minutes. Rotate the chicken about 90 degrees so that the skin won't burn and cook another 2 minutes. Flip and cook 5 minutes longer. Cover the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of each thigh registers 165 degrees F, about 5 more minutes. Transfer to a platter and rest for at least 5 minutes.
• While the chicken rests, brush the cut sides of the baguette halves with 2 tablespoons oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the bread cut-side down on the grill until lightly charred and warmed through, about 2 minutes. Halve the remaining garlic clove and lightly rub the cut sides of the garlic onto the hot bread. Halve each piece of baguette.
• Scatter most of the mint over the watermelon mixture. Add the remaining 1/4 cup oil and a large pinch of salt and pepper and gently stir to combine. Divide the watermelon salad, chicken and bread among 4 large dinner plates. Garnish with the remaining mint.
