**Cabbage and Jicama Slaw: A Refreshing and Crunchy Side Dish**

This cabbage and jicama slaw is a delightful side dish that is both refreshing and crunchy. It is made with a combination of shredded cabbage, jicama, carrots, and red onion, tossed in a tangy dressing made with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and spices. The cabbage and jicama provide a crisp texture, while the carrots and red onion add sweetness and a bit of bite. The dressing is light and flavorful, and it perfectly complements the vegetables. This slaw is a great addition to any summer cookout or potluck, and it is also a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables.

In addition to the traditional cabbage and jicama slaw, the article also includes recipes for two variations: a spicy slaw and a creamy slaw. The spicy slaw is made with the addition of chili peppers or hot sauce, while the creamy slaw is made with the addition of sour cream or Greek yogurt. Both variations are delicious and offer a different take on the classic slaw.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lime juice plus lime wedges (for serving)
1 1/2 teaspoons (or more) minced canned chipotle chiles in adobo
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
4 boneless trout fillets with skin
2 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
1 8-ounce package thinly sliced red cabbage (about 4 cups)
2 cups matchstick-size strips peeled jicama
1/2 cup (packed) plus 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup unsalted natural pepitas (pumpkin seeds; optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons chipotles, and cumin in large bowl to blend. Sprinkle fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Measure 4 teaspoons chipotle mayonnaise and spread over flesh side of trout fillets. Whisk yogurt into remaining chipotle mayonnaise in bowl. Add cabbage, jicama, and 1/2 cup cilantro to chipotle dressing and toss to coat, adding more lime juice, if desired. Season slaw generously with salt and pepper.
  • Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add trout, flesh side down, and cook until deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn fish fillets over and cook until just opaque in center, about 2 minutes. Place 1 fish fillet on each of 4 plates. Spoon slaw alongside; sprinkle slaw with pepitas, if desired. Sprinkle fish with 1 tablespoon cilantro and serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

  • For a spicier slaw, use a serrano pepper instead of a jalapeño.
  • To make the slaw ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, bring it to room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • This slaw is also great as a topping for tacos, burritos, or grilled fish.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage and jicama.
  • Be sure to taste the slaw before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
