This is from the February 2006 Bon Apetit magazine. I'm posting it here for safe keeping. I added some toasted pecans when I made this - just because I had them. Ingredients:
1 large avocado, halved, pitted |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons chili-garlic sauce |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 cups diced cooked honey roasted turkey breast (about 10 ounces, from the deli) |
1 cup diced peeled jicama |
1 cup diced red onion |
1 large red pepper, diced |
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro |
romaine lettuce leaf |
Directions:
1. Scoop avocado flesh into a mini food processor. Add lime juice, chili-garlic sauce and olive oil and process until smooth. Season dressing generouosly with salt and pepper.
2. Mix turkey, jicama, red onion, bell pepper, and 1/2 cup cilantro in a large bowl.
3. Add avocado dressing, toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Divide lettuce leaves among plates. Spoon salad into center and sprinkle with remaining cilantro.
