What a lovely recipe - I found this after trying to figure out a main for a veg friend coming over for lunch.<br/><br/>I followed the recipe as directed - it was my first time buying/roasting jicama.. that first cut was very difficult, I must say.<br/><br/>The flavor was spot-on - I didn't even add s&p! Thank you!

I wish I could give this 10 stars! I loved this!!! I never had cooked jicama before and I was pleasantly surprised. All the flavors blended so well together. I added some chicken to my BF's but I loved mine just as the recipe is posted! I'll be making this regularly. Thank you so much for the best fajitas ever!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I wandered onto Recipezaar less than a year ago, looking for a lentil soup recipe. I'm pretty sure I haven't left the computer since then...I've been completely sucked in by this site! Of course, I do take the occasional break to actually cook the recipes I find.
When I'm not at my computer or in the kitchen, I'm working toward my PhD in clinical psychology from Kent State. I also work as a therapist at the campus clinic, teach a class (Social Psychology this semester), and work as a research assistant. I'm a little bit busy. I do usually find time every day to cook something for myself with the help of this site, and to exercise (to counteract the effects of the great recipes I find here).
I don't have much time in my life for hobbies at the moment (sigh), but I seem to recall that I used to like reading, going to see musical performances, and watching movies. I still do my best to travel as much as possible. My sister, Kate, my boyfriend, Jake, and my friend, Kris, are my favorite travel partners. Kate and I go on an "eatacation" every year.
