Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a raffaello salad with chicken and mushrooms? Prepare the specified ingredients. Champignons are fresh. Pickled cucumbers. Two eggs, a medium-sized onion. Boiled chicken breast (can be taken in any form — both boiled, fried, and smoked). It is better to cut the salad finely, because it will be served in the form of balls, and large pieces may not look presentable.
Step 2:
Wash the champignons under running water from debris and earth, remove excess moisture. Cut into small cubes. Finely chop the onion as well.
Step 3:
Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the chopped mushrooms and onions until tender, add a little salt. Put it in a deep bowl to cool down.
Step 4:
Boil the eggs until tender, cool and peel. Finely chop the cooled boiled eggs and put them in a salad bowl with fried mushrooms.
Step 5:
Finely chop the pickled cucumbers. Add to the previously prepared products.
Step 6:
Finely chop the boiled chilled chicken fillet and add it to the salad.
Step 7:
Grate the hard cheese on a medium grater. Grated cheese will imitate coconut chips, as in sweets, so a large grater will not work.
Step 8:
Add salt to taste and mayonnaise to the salad bowl, mix. It is better to cool the salad before serving.
Step 9:
It is better to shape the salad balls before serving. With clean hands or in cooking gloves, roll the salad into balls. Roll each ball in grated cheese. Serve as a cold appetizer.
This salad is sure to conquer its tasters with its serving. It was very funny to come up with the idea of rolling a ready-made salad, formed in the form of balls, in grated cheese. It is better to serve the salad in portions, putting a spoon in each plate, or put it in the center of the table using skewers for canapes. In any case, the salad and its shape will appeal to everyone.
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.
How to cook hard-boiled eggs? To prevent the eggs from cracking during cooking, put them in cold water and put them on a small fire to cook. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then pour cold water and cool. From a sharp temperature drop, the shell will be better cleaned.
