Salad "Bunch of grapes"
For any holiday, family celebration or romantic dinner, a salad with chicken "Bunch of grapes" is suitable. Both adults and children like this original dish very much, and simple ingredients and uncomplicated execution make its preparation affordable.
Ingredients:
To prepare the Bunch of Grapes salad for two large dishes (8-10 people), we need:
- Chicken breast smoked or boiled - 500 grams.
- Hard-boiled chicken or quail eggs - 4-6 pieces.
- Hard cheese, suitable Russian or Dutch-400 grams.
- Walnut flaws -50 grams.
- Garlic - 2-3 cloves.
- Mayonnaise - 500 grams.
- Apple -1 piece (optional).
- Grapes - 400-500 (preferably pitted).
- Parsley or celery for garnish.
Cooking:
There are two variations of the preparation of the Bunch of Grapes salad:
- Shaping lettuce in layers.
- Mixed salad.
For the first cooking option, we need two flat plates on which we will lay out and serve our salad. It makes sense to immediately divide the products into two parts for each plate. We form all layers in the form of a grape brush.
Layered salad "Bunch of grapes"
- The first layer is cheese grated on a medium grater.
- Top lightly with mayonnaise mixed with garlic.
- The second layer is chicken breast. To do this, you can take a ready-made smoked breast or boil chicken fillet. The breast should be finely chopped or disassembled into fibers and laid on a plate. Top lightly with mayonnaise mixed with garlic. Advice: Chicken fillet will be softer and juicier if you salt it in the broth at the end of cooking.
- The third layer is eggs grated on a medium grater.
- The fourth layer is an apple grated on a coarse grater. Top lightly with mayonnaise mixed with garlic.
- The fifth layer is finely chopped nuts. They can be chopped or ground in a blender, mortar. Top well with mayonnaise-garlic sauce.
- We decorate with wine berries cut in half, giving the dish the appearance of a grape brush. First remove all the seeds from the berries.
- We decorate the top of the resulting bunch with greenery.

For the second recipe, you will need the same ingredients. This dish is especially tasty with smoked chicken.
Cooking:
- First, we cut or disassemble the chicken breast into fibers.
- Add diced eggs and grated cheese on a medium grater.
- You can not add an apple (this is to taste), instead you can finely chop 200 grams of Beijing cabbage. Beijing cabbage will add airiness to the finished dish.
- Add a handful of pre-chopped nuts.
- Crush two or three cloves of garlic into mayonnaise and season the chopped ingredients well with this sauce.
- Putting the ingredients on a plate, they are given an oval shape in the form of a brush of grapes.
- The dish is decorated in the same way as in the first recipe, with slices of pitted wine berries and decorated with parsley or celery.
Those who love this combination of products: chicken, cheese, garlic, mayonnaise, nuts and the sweet and sour taste of grapes will definitely like the salad. And if you are also looking for something beautifully decorated for the festive New Year's table, then the Grape Bunch salad is exactly what you need. The recipes contain nuts, I have walnuts and almonds, but if you wish, you can take pistachios, it will also be interesting. In both cases, the chicken is boiled, but if you want to tinker, you can bake it in the oven or take a ready-made smoked one. Sometimes fried mushrooms are found on the net as part of a salad, but it seems to me that they are not very good here. Although it's up to you.
Today we will cook it in two similar versions, and you can choose one of them.

How to deliciously cook an unusual beautiful salad "Bunch of grapes" with chicken
Boil eggs and poultry meat until cooked and finely chop
- Boil a whole piece of chicken in salted and seasoned water to taste. At the same time, put the eggs to boil. My grapes with greens and leave to dry in the air.
- Put the meat on a plate, cool. We clean the eggs, separate the whites from the yolks, then three whites on a coarse grater, and grind the yolks with a fork.
- We take an oval dish and lay out a layer of proteins on it so that it resembles a bunch of grapes in shape. Even if the dish is round, we still form a rounded top and a tapering bottom - this will add a resemblance to the original. Lubricate 1 tbsp. l. mayonnaise.
If you doubt that you will carefully apply mayonnaise on friable proteins, then it is better to season them in advance in a cup or bowl, and then put them on a plate in one mass, giving the desired shape.
- Finely chop the boiled fillet and spread on top of the proteins. Lubricate with mayonnaise.
We spread the remaining products in layers (nuts, yolks, cheese)
- Grind nuts in a mortar or blender, carefully distribute them over the surface of the salad.
- Sprinkle everything with chopped boiled yolk, flavor with mayonnaise. It’s good if the mayonnaise is homemade, and our chef will tell and show you how to cook it.
- Three on a coarse grater any kind of hard cheese (if we take already grated parmesan, then be sure to remember its salinity). Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise.
We decorate the festive salad with fresh grapes and herbs
- Are the grapes already dry from the water? Then cut each berry in half. Bones, if any, are removed. Spread the halves of the grapes over the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe lettuce with their “backs” up in order, trying to leave a minimum distance between them.
- If there is a grape stick-stick left, we stick it into the base of our improvised bunch, we decorate the same place with sprigs of cilantro or parsley. If not, use lettuce leaves.
Be sure to add layers with yolks, proteins and chicken (if it turned out to be undersalted).
We put it under a plastic "cap" in the refrigerator and keep it for at least an hour. During this time, the snack will have time to soak, become more juicy and cool to the desired temperature.

- Grind the eggs with a fork or very finely crumble with a knife, pour into a deep plate. Salt a little and add 1 tbsp. l. sauce. Mix until smooth and spread the mass in a second layer on top of the chicken.
- My cucumber. Three on a coarse grater, spread evenly over the eggs. Salt is not necessary so that the cucumber does not give even more juice. Also, we do not fill this layer.
If the peel of the cucumber is tender - you can leave it, if it is harsh or bitter - we clean the vegetable.
- Three cheese on the same grater, sprinkle on top. Lubricate with the remaining mixture of tartare and mayonnaise.
- Cut the grapes in half and carefully place them on top of the salad. We decorate, as in the previous recipe, with greens at the wider base of the “bunch”.
- We put it in the refrigerator, covering it with a bag for an hour, or better - for one and a half to two hours. We take it out just before serving, so that the appetizer does not heat up.
