Method

Vinaigrette: In medium skillet over medium high heat, cook pancetta until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Remove all but 1 tablespoon drippings from skillet. Add cider and bring to a boil. Simmer until reduced by half, about 5 minutes and let cool. Whisk in vinegar, honey, mustard and oil and add pancetta. Season with salt and pepper. Slaw: In large bowl, toss together cabbages, apple, pear, jicama, onion, apricots and walnuts. Pour over vinaigrette, tossing to coat. Sprinkle with cheese.

 

Notes: While our family enjoys the traditional Thanksgiving dinner, each year I try to bring something new to the table. This harvest slaw is the perfect accompaniment to turkey.

 

Number of Servings: 10-12
