Salad "Cockerel" with chicken - a delicious recipe with a photo
Preparing a salad is simple and very fast, the main thing is that you can not soak the salad, if there is no time, it is no less tasty from this. If you have time, leave the salad to cool for several hours in the refrigerator.
- Potatoes - 2 pcs. (large boiled in uniform)
- Chicken thighs - 2 pcs. boiled
- Green onions - 30 grams
- Chicken eggs - 5 pcs.
- Processed cheese - 2 packs (180 grams)
- Sweet pepper - 1 pc. (we have red pepper, you can take yellow)
- Mayonnaise (67% fat)
Any greens as desired.
Preparation of ingredients:
1. Boil potatoes until cooked in their skins. Cool and clean.
2. Hard-boil eggs, with salt added, so they will be easier to peel. Cool and peel the eggs.
3. Wash green onions.
4. Mayonnaise can be used with any percentage of fat content. You can make a sauce of mayonnaise and sour cream by mixing these ingredients in equal proportions.
5. Boil chicken thighs until tender. You can buy chicken fillet, legs or legs. I boil it with the addition of salt, black peppercorns, bay leaves, dill or parsley (when there is something in the refrigerator). But you can boil meat in salted water.
6. We take processed cheese, if there is no processed cheese, we replace it with hard cheese. Russian can be used.
Preparing the salad:
We will lay out the salad in layers. It is best to take a beautiful dark-colored dish or plate, this will create some contrast for the Cockerel salad.
We smear each layer with mayonnaise, but if you don’t want the salad to be so greasy, you can draw a mayonnaise mesh or smear through the layer.
You can use pickled onions instead of green onions. (I add 1-2 tablespoons of sugar, vinegar 9% (the same amount) and 0.5 teaspoons of salt to a glass of boiling water). Stir the water to dissolve the salt and sugar. Onion cut into half rings or cubes. Marinate the onion for about 20 minutes.
Eggs need to separate the whites from the yolks. Grate the yolks into a separate bowl and the whites into a separate bowl.
We rub the potatoes on a large grater.
Separate the meat from the bones, cut into small cubes.
Cut green onions into cubes.
Rub the cheese on a coarse grater.
Layers of Rooster lettuce
We form the salad in the form of a chicken, a rooster, as it turns out, it will also be more convenient to make a stencil from white paper.
1 layer lettuce - potato.
2 layers of lettuce - chicken.
3 layer - green onions.
4 layer - yolks.
5 layer - cheese.
6 layer - protein. (We do not grease the last layer with mayonnaise.)
Lubricate each layer with mayonnaise. You can salt the potatoes if you like.
We make a cockerel scallop from red pepper. Also from pepper, thinly sliced, we make a tail and a wing. In addition to red pepper, you can buy green and yellow, then the Rooster salad will be even brighter and more beautiful. We decorate the salad to your liking.
