Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a puff salad Tenderness with chicken, prunes, walnuts and cucumber? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this according to the list. Boil the chicken fillet and eggs in advance and cool. Dip the chicken meat for the salad into boiling water and boil for 30 minutes, in lightly salted water. Boil the eggs in boiling water for 7-8 minutes. Then drain the hot water and cool them in cold water. Rinse the fresh cucumber in running water from dirt.
Step 2:
Pour boiling water over the prunes and let them stand for 5 minutes. Then drain the hot water and rinse the prunes again in cold water. Dry the prunes with a paper towel to remove excess moisture from them. Cut the steamed prunes into small pieces. Chop the walnuts with a knife and fry in a dry frying pan for a few minutes, until a characteristic aroma appears. Then pour them on a plate so that they do not burn in a hot frying pan.
Step 3:
Salad can be laid out in layers in a common salad bowl or made in portions. Put the finely chopped chicken fillet on the first layer of salad and press it a little with a spoon. Lubricate this layer and all subsequent ones with a small amount of mayonnaise. By the way, not only fillets can be used for salad. You can boil any parts of the chicken, but after cooking, separate the meat from the bones.
Step 4:
Put the sliced prunes in the second layer.
Step 5:
Cut the fresh cucumber into small cubes and lay out the next layer of lettuce.
Step 6:
Then lay out a layer of roasted walnuts. They are very fragrant!
Step 7:
Put the last layer of eggs, grated on a grater. Press them down a little from above. Remove the mold and let the salad cool slightly in the refrigerator. Tender salad with chicken prunes and walnuts is ready! Bon appetit!
Cucumber skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut.
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.
