Ingredients

Slaw:

1 small jicama, peeled and sliced into thin strips

4 scallions, cut into 3 pieces and then sliced lengthwise into thin strips

2 carrots, peeled and sliced into thin strips

1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced

1/4 head red cabbage, cored and thinly sliced

Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Dressing:

1/3 cup rice vinegar

1/4 cup lime juice

1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish, optional

1 tablespoon honey

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. For the slaw: Toss the jicama with the scallions, carrots, bell pepper and cabbage. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. For the dressing: In a small mixing bowl, whisk the vinegar, lime juice, cilantro, honey, chili powder and cumin. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified.
