Step 1

To dice the Seedless Watermelon (1/2) , slice the half into two quarters, and then slice off 1/2" crescent-shaped slabs. Slice the slabs into 1/2" strips, and then into cubes.

Step 2

Dice the Jicama (1/2) into slightly smaller cubes, and slice up the Fresh Strawberries (12) . Chop the Fresh Basil Leaves (2 g) and Fresh Mint Leaves (3 g) .

Step 3

Toss the cut watermelon, jicama, and strawberries with the chopped mint, basil, and juice from Lemon (1) .

Step 4

In a large pot, bring the Balsamic Vinegar (480 mL) to a simmer. Allow it to simmer until it is thick enough to coat a spoon, about 20 minutes. The liquid will have reduced by about half.

Step 5

When ready to serve, crumble the Goat Cheese (120 g) over top of the salad and stir it in. Drizzle the balsamic reduction on top just before eating.
