Most of these salads are prepared within 30-40 minutes, so you can indulge in a delicious recipe for your family, who just returned home on a normal working day, and unexpected guests who have come for a holiday.

Chicken salads very often play the role of holiday dishes, but they can perfectly diversify the daily diet. For the preparation of chicken salads, poultry fillet (white meat of the breast), which is devoid of tendons and fat, is most often used. This meat is dietary, low-calorie. In exceptional cases, meat from other parts of the chicken can be used to make the salad. Before you put the meat in the salad, it must be boiled, fried, or smoked.

Tender chicken fillet in salads is combined with various ingredients: chopped boiled eggs, mushrooms, cucumbers, potatoes, carrots, cabbage, pineapples, canned corn, beans, crackers, onions, cheese, prunes, avocados, tomatoes, nuts, greens. The list of compatible components goes on and on. Among the most famous chicken salads, Caesar salad, Olivier with chicken (the second name is Stolichny salad), as well as the Emerald Bracelet prepared with the addition of kiwi, should be mentioned. “Spring Salad” and “Winter Salad” are very popular - from chicken, onions, cucumbers and eggs. The difference between these salads is that fresh cucumbers are put in the first, and pickled or pickled in the second.

To pick and chop the ingredients for chicken salad is only half the story. It is also important to find the appropriate dressing or sauce that will create the perfect harmony of taste. Chicken salads are most often seasoned with vegetable oil, unsweetened yogurt, mayonnaise, creamy, mustard, garlic sauce, white Bechamel sauce, and Caesar salad sauce. If the components of the salad do not differ in juiciness, the dish is recommended to let it brew and soak in the sauce. If the recipe contains a lot of fresh vegetables, serve the salad immediately until the juice flows and the texture of the dish deteriorates.
