These delicious crispy marinated cucumbers are normally served with The Cheesecake Factory Thai Lettuce Wraps, but they taste great as a snack or in place of a salad or side dish.
Make sure you wait until the marinade is truly at room temperature before you add the cucumbers or else they’ll come out limp when you serve them.
Enjoy!
