Step 1:
How to make a salad with smoked chicken and cucumber? You can choose any kind of smoked chicken meat, but I prefer a ham. In my opinion, the smoked breast will be a little dry in the salad. Pre-boil the eggs until tender for about 10 minutes and cool in cold water. It is better to choose a hard cheese, focus on your taste sensations: if the cheese tastes good for you, then the salad will be delicious.
Step 2:
Salad can be cooked in a deep salad bowl and served in it, or you can make a serving serving using a serving ring. Remove the smoked chicken from the skin and cut the meat from the bones. Cut the pulp into small cubes and put it in a deep bowl or in a salad bowl.
Step 3:
Peel the pre-boiled and cooled eggs from the shell and cut into small cubes. Add the eggs to the salad bowl to the chopped chicken.
Step 4:
Wash fresh cucumbers under running cold water, cut off the tips. If necessary, cut off the skin (if it is too rough or damaged). Cut the cucumbers into small cubes and add to the salad.
Step 5:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Add the grated cheese to the salad bowl to the previously prepared ingredients.
Step 6:
Wash and dry the fresh dill greens. Cut the dill and add it to the salad. Season the salad with mayonnaise and mix. Taste the salad and, if necessary, add salt and ground black pepper.
Step 7:
The finished salad can be served immediately after cooking or cooled before serving in the refrigerator. Such a salad can act as an independent dish, or in company with other dishes, for example, boiled potatoes.

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.

Such a salad is prepared very quickly, if all the necessary products are available (and the products, in turn, can be purchased in advance and stored for several days in the refrigerator). This salad can be easily prepared for unexpected guests or for a festive dinner. In addition, even a novice hostess can easily prepare such a salad.

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

Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).
