FLAMING LOBSTER PIZZA WITH ROASTED YELLOW TOMATO, KALAMATA OLIVES, ROASTED GARLIC, ROASTED RED PEPPER AND BASIL; JICAMA AND CARROT COLE SLAW
Steps:
- To roast garlic: cut off the top and remove the excess papery skin and rub with oil. Season and wrap in foil. Place the foil on medium heat and grill for 40 minutes. Place lobster tails shell side down on a cutting board. Take a chef's knife and cut lengthwise through the tough underside of the tail, but don't cut the flesh. (Shears will also work). Run a skewer through the length of the tail. Grill shell side down over medium heat until the flesh turns opaque, about 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove the meat from the shell and slice into 3/8-inch slices.
- Combine yeast, sugar and water in a medium bowl. Stir and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes until foamy. Add flour, basil, chipotle, orange zest, salt and oil. Mix until it holds together. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth. Place dough in a bowl that is lightly oiled. Turn the dough to coat with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest until doubled in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch down the dough and divide in 4 equal pieces. Return to lightly floured work surface and roll into 8 inch rounds 1/8-inch thick. Lightly oil, brush or spray, both sides of each round and place on baking sheets. Slide the crusts off the sheets onto the grill directly over medium heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Put the crusts back on baking sheet, grilled side up.
- While pizza crusts are hot, brush with oil and add in order: olives, chopped tomato, red pepper, garlic, basil, lobster and cheese. Place pizzas carefully back on the grill for 3 minutes. While pizzas are on the grill, quickly shake 3 ounces vodka from a powdered sugar shaker on each pizza and flame. Remove immediately to serving platters. Flames will go out. Cut and serve.
- In a large bowl, whisk orange juice, lime juice, oil, basil, zests and salt and pepper. Peel the jicama and carrots. Julienne the vegetables in even lengths and 1/8-inch thick. Add vegetables to juice and toss. Allow to sit for 4 hours. Toss and serve.

JICAMA, CARROT, AND GREEN APPLE SLAW
Flavorful take on an old bbq standby. Other seasonings can be added as well, depending on preference. I find that chili powder adds a nice kick. Serve right after tossing if you prefer a nice crunchy slaw or let marinade in the fridge for an hour before dishing up. Great with grilled veggies, Mexican style corn on the cob, and smoked chicken breast.

JICAMA SLAW
Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey and lime zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss the jicama, cabbage and scallions with the dressing until coated. If using right away, toss with the mint and serve. (The slaw can be made ahead of time and refrigerated up to overnight; if making ahead, wait to add the mint until just before serving.)
Tips:
- Choose the right jicama: Look for jicama that is firm and has smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid jicama that is soft, wrinkled, or has bruises.
- Peel and slice the jicama thinly: Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to slice the jicama into thin, matchstick-sized pieces. This will help the jicama to absorb the flavors of the dressing.
- Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to jicama, you can add other vegetables to your slaw, such as carrots, cabbage, red onion, and bell pepper. This will add color, texture, and flavor to the dish.
- Make a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what brings all the flavors of the slaw together. Use a combination of vinegar, oil, sugar, and spices to create a dressing that is both tangy and flavorful.
- Chill the slaw before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the slaw to become more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Jicama slaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, a salad, or a topping for tacos or burritos. It is a great way to use up leftover jicama and is a healthy and refreshing addition to any meal.
