Now you will learn a detailed salad recipe, remember many important points. All the information, useful recommendations will help you prepare a healthy, tasty, memorable salad.

Cooking ladies whim

First you need to make sure that you already have all the necessary ingredients. The basis of the salad is a tender chicken fillet. It can be prepared in many ways. Someone prefers to save time by purchasing chicken after smoking or grilling. This will really help you cook your meal much faster. But you can’t call it useful, dietary. The chicken will be quite fatty, not all vitamins and valuable substances will be preserved in it. It is advisable to allocate a little more time to create a dish, cook the fillet yourself. Then you can process it properly, choose the best pieces, see to it that it is fully cooked. In addition, the taste of a salad with boiled fillet is also noticeably better, more harmonious. The chicken is quite tender, it becomes the optimal background for emphasizing other ingredients. Our recipe implies that you cook the chicken yourself.

You will also need eggs with cheese, fresh garlic, a lot of lettuce. Do not forget that pineapple plays a huge role in this dish. We are talking about a recipe according to which fresh pineapple should be sent to the salad. It is difficult to compare it in terms of the amount of nutrients, rich taste and delicate aroma with canned foods. We note that it is fresh pineapple that can bring a wonderful fresh stream to the dish. Here is what one young housewife noticed: “I never understood why everyone likes a lady's whim so much. I can call myself a real gourmet, but this dish still could not win my love. Until I tried my friend's salad one day. He just blew me away with great taste! And the flavor was different too. Everything was easily explained when a friend informed me that her can opener did not open any cans at all! She took a fresh pineapple from the store and put it on her salad. Yes, the taste was just fabulous. At the same time, a friend said that the benefits of such a pineapple are also much greater. Numerous vitamins and valuable substances have been preserved in it. And how much was in the dish of this fruit! All in all, the salad was amazing. Now I also cook a lady's whim only with fresh pineapple. The recipe is slightly different, but the difference is literally striking!”

As a dressing, you should take only low-fat mayonnaise if you have a strict diet. We have our own sauce recipe, a little more complicated. You will need to stock up on an extra clove of garlic, odorless olive oil, sour cream with a medium fat content.

Let's start cooking!

  1. Let's go straight to the fillet. Chicken meat must be chosen very carefully. It is not necessary to take meat from the legs, as it is clearly too fatty for our salad. It is advisable to take white meat, you can add a little fillet from the legs. We take white meat according to the recipe. Enough for two medium-sized breasts. First, wash them well under running water. Then you can send them to a saucepan with water, which is slightly salted. Please note that frozen meat is not recommended. It is better to look for quality chilled meat immediately before cooking. It should have a pleasant smell, a uniform shade. Remember that you need to cook the meat until it is fully cooked. Sometimes housewives additionally beat the fillet a little before sending it to the pan.
  2. While the fillet is cooking, you need to take care of the eggs. Our recipe involves the use of chicken eggs of the first or highest grade. Remember that you do not need to add quail eggs to a lady's whim. If you really want, you can decorate the dish on top with small testicles. But note that the taste of quail eggs does not fit into the overall bouquet of our dish. The best option is large chicken eggs. It's great if you get exactly large eggs of the highest, first grade. They are noticeably different from the small ones. Only with such eggs will you be able to achieve a truly rich multifaceted flavor bouquet. In addition, it is in large chicken eggs that the content of valuable trace elements, minerals and vitamins is much higher. Particular attention should be paid to the appearance of the eggs. High-quality eggs are smooth, without scuffs and scratches, traces of dirt and fluff. You can cook them for only 10 minutes, and first carefully wash them under running water. In no case do not digest eggs, do not keep them in a saucepan. Overcooked eggs become too tight, they just spoil the dishes. As soon as 10 minutes have passed after boiling, you must immediately remove the eggs from the pan, someone drains the water directly with them. It is important to remove the boiling water and place the eggs under ice water. After that, you will be able to easily clean them. Cut the eggs into small cubes so that they feel good in the salad.
  3. Pineapple also needs attention. Choose a ripe but not rotten pineapple. It should have a uniform shade, without greenish areas. A ripe pineapple does not have a too strong smell. When a pineapple smells excessively, it probably means that it is rotten. Be careful. Cut off the tail of the pineapple, cut off all the excess from the top. You only need juicy pulp. Cut the pineapple into fairly small cubes.
  4. Gently tear the lettuce leaves into small pieces with your hands so that the juice does not stand out.
  5. Garlic should be finely chopped. Two cloves are enough.
  6. Is the chicken already cooked? Cut the fillet into small cubes, while it is desirable to make cuts across the fibers.
  7. To prepare the sauce, combine one part sour cream with two parts mayonnaise, add a little olive oil and grated garlic.
