Salad «Chicken, walnuts, cheese and pineapple»
A very unusual and delicate salad can be made from chicken, pineapple and walnuts. Meat must be boiled until cooked or baked in the oven. Then cut into small pieces. You can pepper the chicken to taste. We spread the chopped meat as the first layer, pour a little mayonnaise on it. Canned pineapples cut into small pieces, put on a chicken, and grease with mayonnaise. The next layer is eggs, they need to be hard-boiled and grated. Salad with walnuts and chicken will get tastier if the nuts that form the next layer are soaked in boiling water before grinding. After that, grate them on a fine grater or cut them. The last layer is grated cheese. If you lay out a salad on a flat dish, you can mask the cheese and the sides of the resulting slides. To ensure that the salad does not crumble, use a removable baking dish.
Fresh salad with walnuts and chicken
To prepare this dish, it is very important to grind the nuts to a homogeneous state. Some housewives even use a coffee grinder or a special hand mill. The recipe involves mixing all the components, not laying them out in layers, so we take a convenient container and cut all the products into it. Chop boiled chicken and boiled eggs. Then shred a thin strip of lettuce, but it can be replaced with a Peking or an iceberg. To taste, you can add a little bit of other greenery - for example, dill or cilantro. Add walnuts to the shredded components and mix. To give the dish spicy notes, sprinkle it with lemon juice. Before serving, add mayonnaise to the table and put a few rye crumbs on top.
