Spiced Orange, Jicama and Pomegranate Salad with a Honey-Lime Drizzle
Sweet, tart and crunchy all in one! This dish brings a delightfully bright burst of citrus to any meal.
Tajín seasoning is often paired with lime juice and sliced jicama as a refreshing afternoon snack, and we love how it pairs with the flavor of the oranges, too.
Spiced Orange, Jicama and Pomegranate Salad with a Honey-Lime Drizzle
Sweet, tart and crunchy all in one! This dish brings a delightfully bright burst of citrus to any meal. Tajín seasoning is often paired with lime juice and sliced jicama as a refreshing afternoon snack, and we love how it pairs with the flavor of the oranges, too. Serves about 4.
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 3 navel oranges sliced into supremes*
- About 1 1/2 cups julienne-sliced jicama
- About 1/3 cup pomegranate arils
- 1 to 2 Tbsp chopped fresh mint
- Zest and juice of one lime divided (about 2 tablespoons juice)
- 1 Tbsp honey such as Orange honey from Honey Hole Honey Co., found only at Sigona’s
- Tajín Clásico seasoning for sprinkling, to taste (or use a combination of salt and chili powder)
- Sea salt to taste
Instructions
- On a large platter, arrange the orange sections (supremes) and the jicama slices. Sprinkle on the pomegranate arils and the mint.
- In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice and honey. Use a spoon to drizzle the mixture over the salad. Season the salad with a few shakes of Tajín or a salt & chili powder mixture. If using a salt & chili powder mixture, also sprinkle the dish with about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon lime zest. Serve.
- *Supreming citrus: It takes time and patience, but is well worth the effort! To do this, cut the top and bottom off of your citrus fruit. Slice the peel from the fruit, top to bottom, getting as close to the flesh as possible. Once the peel is removed, slice any remaining pieces of white pith from the fruit so no white remains. Then, working over a bowl to catch the juices, slice closely along the sides of each membrane to neatly remove the citrus segments in between. And there you have it!
