How to Make Jicama Orange Salsa

  1. Peel and finely dice the jicama. Segment the oranges, removing any membranes and roughly chop the segments.
  2. Finely chop the red onion. Remove seeds from the jalapeño and mince finely (adjust amount to your spice preference).
  3. In a medium bowl, gently combine the diced jicama, orange segments, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice.
  4. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to blend. The longer it chills, the better it tastes!
  6. Serve chilled with your favorite tortilla chips, as a topping for grilled chicken or fish, or as a vibrant addition to your salads.
