Misfits Market strikes again… yet another vegetable I’ve never prepared.  This was an interesting one-I had to Google pictures of root vegetables to figure out what it even was.  Now, I know that a jicama makes a delicious side dish!

I found this recipe from Spend with Pennies.  I paired this recipe with Lemon-Garlic Aioli and it was amazing as a side dish!

Ingredients

• 2 large jicama
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon chili powder

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Peel jicama and cut into ‘fries’. Boil 10-12 minutes.
3. Drain and dab dry. Toss with remaining ingredients.
4. Place on a parchment lined pan and bake 20 minutes.
5. Flip and bake an additional 20 minutes or until golden
6. Serve warm with ranch or aioli.
