PICANTE JíCAMA AND ROASTED CARROT SALAD WITH CREAMY BASIL DRESSING
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Spread carrots on sheet, then very lightly spray carrots. Roast until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool.
- In dry skillet over moderate heat, toast pine nuts, stirring constantly, until fragrant and light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer to plate and let cool.
- In small bowl, toss jicama with lemon or lime juice, chile powder, and cayenne, if using.
- To serve, divide mixed baby greens among 4 salad plates and top each with 4 carrots. Mound 1/3 cup jicama atop each portion. Sprinkle each salad with 2 tablespoons pine nuts and garnish each plate with 2 endive, radicchio, or red-leaf lettuce leaves; 2 orange slices; and 2 fig halves, if using. Drizzle 1 tablespoon basil dressing over each salad and serve immediately.

[email protected]This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a bit too much cayenne pepper. Next time I'll use less.
