Jicama Chili Sticks

Recipe #16901 | 10 min | 10 min prep | add private note

In Mexico you can buy these on just about every street corner. They are usually round slices heavily laden with chili. Very refreshing. When you buy a Jicama make sure it is very firm and free from mold patches. When you slice it open the flesh must be white otherwise it is too old. This is a very low calorie recipe, it fact it is low everything!

    I know this is good because I have enjoyed Jicama this way for several years. When we first moved to New Mexico we visited a Swap Meet in Las Cruces where they sell a "fruit cup" it includes Jicama,watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple and cucumber all cut in strips and sprinkled with lime and red chile. The only difference is they also add salt to the red chile. I now enjoy apples, pears, most any type of fruit with the lime, red chile and salt sprinkled over them!! Betty Jo Weathersby
