Jicama is crunchy and has such a great flavor - plus it is loaded with fiber. Transform this Mexican root vegetable into air-fried “fries” with just a few simple ingredients. Each serving has only 100 calories and has 9 grams of fiber - which is nearly 1/3 of the daily goal for fiber!
If you are wondering about air fryers, we have a Cuinart Air Fryer and I truly love it! Plus it doubles as a toaster oven and convention oven so I just leave it on the counter all the time because we use it most every day because of it’s multiple functions.
Jicama Air-Fried Fries
Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 medium jicama, peeled and sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprkia
sea salt
Directions:
Combine the sliced jicama, olive oil, and spices in a small mixing bowl. Toss to combine.
Arrange the jicama on the air fryer tray (this will vary slightly depending on the style of your air fryer - I used the Cusinart Air Fryer).
Cook on the air fry setting for 15 minutes. Then flip the fries and air fry for another 15 minutes until they are golden brown. Note: they will still be slightly crunchy.
