Every mistress on December 31 wants to ... No, do not go to the bathhouse. I would like to quickly break out of the obligatory captivity of my own kitchen and take the time to prepare for the holiday, dresses, etc. In order to save precious minutes, but at the same time prepare a tasty, unusual, hearty and beautiful dish for the festive table, we offer the recipe for Yummy salad.
List of Essential Ingredients
- Champignons - 220 g.
- Korean carrots - 100 g.
- Chicken fillet (choice: smoked or boiled) - 200 g.
- A pair of fresh cucumbers.
- Prunes - 80 g.
- A pair of table. tablespoons of vegetable oil.
- Lenten mayonnaise or low-fat sour cream - 130 g.
- Cherry tomatoes.
- Fresh greens.
How to make yummy salad
Cut the chicken into small long strips. The exact same shape in the salad should be prunes and cucumber. Champignons are slightly salted and sent for a couple of minutes to the pan. Fry the mushrooms too much is not necessary.
Yummy salad with Korean carrots and prunes will resemble a layer cake. After preparing all the products, we begin the assembly. The first layer is chicken. We layered it with mayonnaise or sour cream. The second stage is crushed prunes. In similar salads, where both of these products are found, experienced chefs are always advised to lay a layer of prunes and chicken side by side.
The next layer of the cake is strips of cucumber mixed with Korean carrots. Do not forget to add a spoonful of mayonnaise, evenly distributing it throughout the layer. The result is a fairly high cake. To make it better saturated, you can add mayonnaise also around the perimeter. We remove the Yummy salad for half an hour in the refrigerator.
For decoration, we use twigs of fresh parsley and half a cherry tomato. From green leaves you can fold a Christmas tree, and from tomatoes cut beautiful toys for her. The second decoration option is crushed walnut and green leaves.
Tips
I would like to note that the salad option can be expressed in two ways. The first way is portioned serving. To do this, the assembly of the dish after preparing all the necessary ingredients is carried out directly in portioned small salad bowls. The second option - salad “Yummy” is made in the form of a large New Year’s cake, served on the table in its entirety and only then cut into pieces.
Salad prunes are best used pitted. This will significantly save cooking time. As for the chicken, the choice is up to the hostesses. If you need a more delicate, light and low-calorie option, then it is better to give preference to boiled chicken. If counting calories at the New Year's table is the last thing that worries you, then we safely take the smoked, rich chicken taste for the Yummy salad.
