Salad with chicken breast and tomatoes

A bright tomato-and-chicken salad with cheese and herbs. A really winning combination. The salad is incredibly tasty and fragrant, thanks to a bouquet of fresh herbs and a little garlic. It's dressed with unrefined sunflower oil — no mayonnaise. Despite all the tomatoes, the salad doesn't weep; you can safely leave it in the refrigerator for the next day, especially if you build it in layers as in the recipe. A great cold dish for an autumn spread.

  • The salad looks tidy and attractive if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (cubes, for example).
  • Choose juicy but firm tomatoes. Soft ones don't hold their shape well — they'll fall apart into a shapeless mush as you cut and assemble, and spoil the look of the dish.
