Salad can be served in a salad bowl, mixing all the ingredients, or you can arrange it in one large culinary ring or serve it individually, forming portions in small rings.

Also in this salad, the ingredients can not be mixed, but laid out in layers: chicken - eggs - tomatoes - cheese. Cheese can be grated on a large or medium grater.

Salad with chicken and tomatoes will become more juicy and fresh if you add sweet bell pepper to it.

Chicken for salad can not only be boiled, but also baked in the oven in foil. To do this, you need to season the whole fillet with salt, pepper and grease with vegetable oil. Put the fillets in foil, or preferably in a double layer of foil and carefully wrap all the edges so that during baking the chicken juice does not stain the baking sheet. Put the fillets on a baking sheet or in a baking dish and put them in a preheated 180 degree oven and bake until the chicken is ready for about 40 minutes.

Chicken fillet can also be fried in a frying pan whole (and then cut) or in pieces. In the case of roasting chicken for salad, I usually add seasoning for chicken or just sprinkle curry - so it turns out much tastier and more fragrant.

Instead of regular tomatoes, you can use small cherry tomatoes. And they can also be used to decorate the finished salad.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here 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.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.
