A way of cooking salad with smoked chicken breast and vegetables
We cut a small piece of boiled sausage from fowl into cubes, instead of sausage boiled ham will do. I like to mix different kinds of sausages and meats in salads - smoked, boiled or dried, - the variety enriches the taste and texture of the salad.
Put the sliced sausage in a salad bowl.
Remove chicken meat from bones, cut into cubes. I advise you to leave the skin in this case, a light smoke aroma is useful, besides, the fat from the skin is usually almost all melted when smoked.
We put several medium potato tubers (at the rate of 1 potato per 1 serving) in boiling salted water, cook in the uniform for 20 minutes. Then immediately put in a bowl with ice water for 2 minutes, after a contrast bath, the potatoes will be cleaned instantly.
Cut the potatoes into cubes the size of half a centimeter, add to the meat.
Peel carrots, cut into cubes of the same size as potatoes. Blanch for 6 minutes in boiling salted water, throw back on a sieve, when the water is drained, add to the salad bowl.
Chop fresh cucumbers. From mature, large-fruited cucumbers need to remove the seeds, if the skin is hard, then it must also be cut.
Cut the pod of bitter green pepper in half, remove the seeds and partitions. Cut the flesh into thin straws, add to vegetables and meat.
Canned green peas are thrown on a sieve, washed with clean boiled or filtered water, add to a salad bowl.
Finely chop a small bunch of fresh parsley and dill. You can also add cilantro and celery. Greens from the garden refreshes the dish and gives it a piquant flavor.
Boil hard boiled eggs, separate the whites from the yolks. Squirrels chop finely, add to the rest of the ingredients in a salad bowl.
Season with mayonnaise, sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper, salt to taste. Mix the ingredients and leave for 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator so that the tastes mix.
Rubbed boiled egg yolk on a fine grater. Before serving, sprinkle the dish with them and decorate with parsley leaves.
Serve a salad with smoked chicken breast and vegetables with a slice of fresh bread and eat with pleasure. Bon Appetit!
