  • How do you make a bean, cheese, and chicken salad? Poach the chicken breast in salted water and let it cool. Drain the canned red beans in a colander, rinse them, and let them sit a while to drain. Grate any hard cheese you like on the coarse holes of a grater. Then make the garlic dressing: take a little mayonnaise, press in fresh garlic cloves, sprinkle in ground black pepper, and stir. Spread half of the finely chopped chicken over the bottom of the salad bowl and top with garlic dressing. Spread half the red beans evenly over that and cover with a layer of mayonnaise. The next layer is half the grated cheese, spread with mayonnaise. Repeat the layers in the same order, leaving the final cheese layer plain (no mayonnaise). Garnish the salad with a sprig of herbs and a flower made from a slice of cooked carrot and thin slivers of cheese. For a pop of color, you can scatter grated egg yolk on top. The bean, cheese, and chicken salad is ready — enjoy!
  • It's worth making your own mayonnaise — it tastes better and is better for you. You can also use sour cream or plain yogurt as the dressing instead of, or mixed with, the mayonnaise in any ratio you like, which lightens up the dish.
