JICAMA - APPLE SALAD

This recipe has such a nice crisp texture. Not overly sweet, would make a nice change of pace for coleslaw. I came up with this just experimenting. I think chopped walnuts would also be good in this.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of beef. Flank steak, skirt steak, or hanger steak are all good choices for this salad. They are relatively inexpensive and have a good amount of flavor.

Marinate the beef. This will help to tenderize the meat and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.

Grill the beef to your desired doneness. If you like your beef rare, cook it for about 2 minutes per side. For medium-rare, cook it for about 3 minutes per side. And for medium, cook it for about 4 minutes per side.

Slice the beef against the grain. This will make it more tender and easier to chew.

Use fresh, crisp vegetables. Jicama, apples, and carrots are all good choices for this salad. They should be peeled and cut into thin slices.

Make the dressing ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld. You can store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Toss the salad just before serving. This will prevent the vegetables from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

This grilled beef, jicama, and apple salad is a healthy and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the vegetables are crisp and refreshing. The dressing is light and tangy, and it perfectly complements the other ingredients. This salad is also very easy to make, and it can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy weeknights.
