Chunky Watermelon Salsa

Bon Appétit July 1996. This cool salsa is the ideal accompaniment for grilled shrimp.

Makes about 3 1/2 cups.

1 lime
2 cups 1/2-inch pieces seeded watermelon
1 cup 1/2-inch pieces seeded peeled cucumber
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons minced seeded jalapeño chili
1 teaspoon sugar

Using small sharp knife, cut peel and white pith from lime. Cut lime into 1/4-inch pieces. Place in medium bowl. Add all remaining ingredients to same bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to blend. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Keep refrigerated.) Serve chilled.
