Begin by washing your cucumbers thoroughly under cool running water to remove any dirt. If you prefer, peel them for a smoother texture. Next, slice the cucumbers thinly—aim for about ¼ inch thick—and place them in a bowl.

In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey or maple syrup, and chili garlic sauce or Sriracha. Whisk until smooth, adding water gradually until the desired consistency is reached.

Drizzle the spicy peanut sauce over the sliced cucumbers and gently toss until evenly coated.

Transfer the coated cucumber slices to a serving platter. Just before serving, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
