Step 2
Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 or 4 seconds.) Thread shrimp onto 6 skewers. Discard marinade. Thread jicama onto 6 more skewers. Grill shrimp until opaque and slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Grill jicama for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
Step 3
Make the salad: Toss together chicory, green oak lettuce, scallions, apple, radishes, and jalapeno if desired. Toss in lime juice, oil, and salt. Divide shrimp and jicama skewers and salad among plates, and serve.
