Ingredients
Jicama Slaw:
- 2 cups papaya unpeeled, from about 1/4 green papaya, shredded, green
- 1/2 jicama from about 1/2 jicama, diced
- 3 tablespoons cilantro from 1 bunch, minced
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- lime juice from 3
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Sandwiches:
- hamburger buns soft
- mayonnaise
- chicken shredded, jerk style
Instructions
To Make the Jicama Slaw:
- In a medium bowl, toss together the papaya, jicama, minced cilantro, sugar, lime juice and salt. Transfer to the fridge to marinate for 30 minutes. I swear this slaw tastes a million times better after it has time to sit.
Cup of Yum
To assemble the sandwiches:
- Toast the buns in a 300 degree F oven. Smother each bun with mayonnaise. Top with shredded jerk chicken and a large spoonful of slaw. Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
