- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoons salt

In a large mixing bowl, combine the jicama and oranges.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, chili powder, cayenne pepper, honey, and salt to make the dressing.
