Ingredients
- 2 large (English or seedless) cucumber
- 0.5 cup white vinegar
- 0.5 cup water
- 2 tablespoons granulated Splenda (or another zero-calorie sweetener)
- 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 clove, minced garlic
Directions
Step 1
Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them thinly using a sharp knife or a mandolin slicer for consistent thickness.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the white vinegar, water, granulated Splenda, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic. Stir until the sweetener and salt are completely dissolved.
Step 3
Add the sliced cucumbers to the bowl, ensuring they are fully submerged in the marinade. If needed, gently toss the cucumbers to coat them evenly.
Step 4
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. For a more intense flavor, marinate overnight.
Step 5
Before serving, give the cucumbers a quick stir. Serve chilled as a side dish, salad topping, or snack.
