Citrusy Jicama Salad with a Cilantro Zest

1. Peel and Slice Jicama

Peel the jicama using a sharp knife, carefully removing the tough outer skin to reveal the crisp, juicy flesh beneath. Cut it into ¼-inch-thick slices, then further slice these into ¼-inch-wide sticks.

2. Prepare Oranges

Take the oranges and remove their rinds and membranes. Slice the oranges into ¼-inch-thick rounds.

3. Arrange Jicama and Oranges

Arrange the jicama sticks and orange slices on a serving plate, creating a visually appealing pattern. Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top.

4. Prepare Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, a pinch of salt, and the extra-virgin olive oil until well-emulsified.

5. Dress the Salad

Pour the dressing evenly over the arranged jicama and oranges.

6. Garnish with Cilantro

Garnish the salad with chopped cilantro, sprinkling it over the top. Serve immediately.
