Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a classic Olivier salad with chicken? Prepare the necessary products. I used chicken fillet. You can take chicken thighs or shins. Put the canned green peas on a sieve to drain the liquid.
Step 2:
Wash the chicken, boil in boiling salted water until tender. To make the meat more juicy, be sure to lower the chicken into boiling water, not cold. Remove the chicken from the broth, cool.
Step 3:
Cut the cooled chicken into small cubes. It is desirable that the shape and size of the slicing ingredients are the same, then the salad will look nice and neat.
Step 4:
Cook the vegetables until tender, cool. Peel the carrots, cut into small cubes.
Step 5:
Peel the potatoes, similarly cut into small cubes.
Step 6:
Wash the eggs, hard-boil over moderate heat for 7-8 minutes. Fill the eggs with cold water to cool down. Peel the eggs from the shell, cut into small cubes.
Step 7:
Remove the pickles from the brine, dry them. Cut the cucumbers into small cubes.
Step 8:
In a suitable-sized salad bowl, combine all the prepared ingredients: potatoes, chicken, carrots, eggs, pickles and green peas. Add a little salt to the salad, season with mayonnaise and mix well.
Step 9:
You can serve the salad in a salad bowl or form it with a cooking ring and decorate as desired. Bon appetit!
Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting
recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.
