The relativistic plasma jets from a misaligned black hole-accretion disk system will not be axially symmetric. Here we analyze nonaxisymmetric, stationary, translation invariant jets in the force-free approximation where the field energy dominates the particle energy. We derive a stream equation for these configurations involving the flux function $\psi$ for the transverse magnetic field, the linear velocity $v(\psi)$ of field lines along the jet, and the longitudinal magnetic field $B_z(\psi)$. The equations can be completely solved when $|v|=1$, and when $|v| E^2$. Finally, we write down specific solutions approximating numerical results for the nonaxisymmetric jet produced by a spinning black hole in an external, misaligned magnetic field.
