This salad with chicken and cucumber is prepared quite quickly, however, just as it is eaten. To do this, you must first boil the fillet and eggs.

Simple
Ingredients: five hundred grams of chicken fillet, two cucumbers, one lemon, two tablespoons of olive oil, two tablespoons of dry mint, half a spoon of ground black pepper, two tablespoons of brown sugar, one pinch of salt, one spoon of soy sauce.
Cooking
The chicken fillet is boiled and cut into thin strips along with the cucumber. If the cucumbers are large, then it is recommended to cut the peel from them. Next prepare the dressing. To do this, olive oil, sauce, a pinch of mint, salt and pepper, juice from one lemon and sugar are mixed. All prepared components are combined, thoroughly mixed. The finished salad is transferred to a large dish and served immediately.
Chicken fillet must be boiled so that it turns out juicy. To do this, put it in boiling water, add a little salt and cook for exactly twenty-five minutes. You can use not fillet, but meat from the thighs or legs, in this case the dish will turn out to be more high-calorie. To make salads (chicken recipes) hearty, you can add boiled rice or potatoes to them. All components are recommended to be cut equally (cubes of medium size).
Thus, chicken salad is prepared very simply. Chicken itself is an ingredient that goes well with any component, so there are a huge number of recipes for preparing light and tasty dishes. Many people think that such delicacies are very high-calorie, but this is not so, it is enough to take only low-fat mayonnaise and chicken fillet, in which there are very few calories.
In this one, instead of mayonnaise, I add sour cream or yogurt. Just because you don’t want to clog the freshness of a crispy cucumber and apple with high-calorie mayonnaise dressing. Since there are fresh vegetables and fruits in the salad, it is better to choose a light dressing for it, and leave mayonnaise for heavy puff salads (in terms of calories). Or for holiday salads, which we will also get to soon. In the meantime, we are preparing a light and tasty salad of chicken and cucumbers.
Very rarely do I boil chicken specifically for salads, I usually use chicken breast from baked chicken or thigh meat when I cook chicken broth. That is what happened this time as well. In a salad of chicken and fresh cucumbers, I chopped the remains of baked chicken. She was already with spices, and nothing had to be added to the sour cream dressing except pepper. If chicken meat will be boiled, then it is advisable to add a little hot pepper for taste and freshly ground black for flavor to the finished salad. And another tip - take the boiled chicken meat out of the broth before you start making the salad. So it will remain juicy, tender, a salad of boiled chicken and cucumbers will turn out very tasty.

Salad recipe with chicken and fresh cucumber
- I peel apples, so the salad turns out to be crispy, juicy, without hard pieces of apple peel. I cut into small cubes, squeeze the juice from a circle of lemon or half a lime so that the apple slices do not darken.
- I also cut off the skin from cucumbers, from any, even ground ones from my summer cottage. I tried not to peel cucumbers - not the taste of the salad, and not the same perception. Nevertheless, the coarse particles of the peel in it are superfluous. I cut cucumbers a little smaller than apples. I also cut the chicken meat into small pieces.
- I usually add pitted olives to a chicken salad with fresh cucumbers. Sometimes olives, they are more sour and sharp in taste. Cut in half and then cut into thin strips. I add olives (olives) to the rest of the salad ingredients.
- I mix everything. I dress a salad of chicken and fresh cucumbers with salt and a spoonful of sour cream or yogurt so that apples and cucumbers give juice. I leave it for five minutes, let it infuse, while I do the dressing. For dressing, I mix yogurt (sour cream), mustard, ground pepper, spices and lemon (lime) juice. I shake everything. I'm making a salad.
- I mix. After a few minutes, the salad with chicken and fresh cucumber will be soaked with dressing and will be ready. You can decorate it as you like, fresh herbs, for example, or olives, apple slices, cucumber.
