Best Jicama Apple Salad Recipes

GRILLED BEEF, JíCAMA, AND APPLE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the steak with the salt and pepper and grill until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes, then cut across the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, vinegar, and sugar and whisk until the sugar is partially dissolved. Using the shredder attachment of a food processor, shred the jícama and apples; transfer to a bowl. Add the cilantro, lime zest, jalapeño, and dressing, and toss to combine.
• To serve, mound 1 1/2 cups of the salad into each serving bowl and top with about 7 slices of beef. Garnish each bowl with additional cilantro leaves and about 2 teaspoons of toasted peanuts. Serve immediately.

APPLE-JICAMA SALAD WITH HATCH CHILE DRESSING

Steps:

• For the dressing, place roasted chiles, cucumbers, cilantro, green onions, olive oil, vinegar and garlic into a food processor and puree until smooth.
• Add yogurt and mix well.
• Chill in the fridge for at least one hour.
• In a large bowl, toss Hatch chile, apple, jicama, tangerines and salad greens.
• Add just enough dressing to coat salad and toss.
• Top with nuts or sesame seeds.
• To roast the peppers, either put them under the broiler for a few minutes, watching until they begin to char. Or toast them on a stick over a gas burner. Once they're charred, popping them into a paper bag for a few minutes will make them easy to peel. "Cook time" listed is actually chilling time for the dressing.
