Jicama Slaw
1/2 of a Jicama
1/2 English Cucumber
1/4 yellow pepper
1/2 serrano chili with seeds
1/4 cup red onion
1/2 cup equal parts Mint, Parsley, & Cilantro
S & P
White Balsamic Vinegar
Julienne all veggies toss with herbs, balsamic, S & P
Spicy but so good with the refreshing juicy Jicama
2 six ounce Tilapia Fillets
marinated in lowfat buttermilk and lime juice for 1/2 hour
Dredged in a light coating of 1/2 cup cornmeal, 2 tbs flour, S&P, garlic powder.
Pan fry in 2 tb of Canola oil on high for about 3 minutes each side. Adjust heat as necessary to prevent burning.
The light taste of fish, it's crunchy coating went perfectly with the crunchy spicy slaw. The mint was the kicker in the slaw.
