JICAMA AND RED PEPPER SALAD



Jicama and Red Pepper Salad image

I took a leap when I made this recipe 8-9 years ago. I am a west Texas boy. Jicama? Sounds like a new language. WRONG! Good stuff with a raw potato texture...a little sweet with a little crunch. Just try it. I may grill it soon. Stay tuned.

I made this as a side dish with some grilled basil chicken and spicy Italian chicken sausages; it was perfect! If you don't like spicy food, just cut back on the Thai chiles. My boyfriend and I loved it!

JICAMA SALAD

This is another recipe from The Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas. It is a recipe created by chef Dean Fearing and is Southwest cuisine at it's best. The recipe calls for cold-pressed peanut oil. I make it with canola because it's easier to find and it's healthier.
