  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    Finely chop the chicken and spread a portion of it as the first layer in a ring mold. Press it down well so the finished salad holds together. Spread a little mayonnaise over this layer and every layer after it.

  • Generally speaking, any salad with smoked chicken in it has a bright, rich flavor. Every cook should have a recipe like this in their back pocket. If you don't yet, let me share my version. You can serve it plated in a mold the way I did, or build it in a regular salad bowl, layering all the ingredients the same way. Try experimenting with substitutions—you might find you love a new combination just as much. Smoked chicken pairs wonderfully with Korean-style carrots, boiled potatoes, plain carrots, olives, cucumbers, and tomatoes. At first glance the salad might look very plain and ordinary, but it isn't—after all, we don't eat smoked chicken every day. That's why I'd file it under holiday fare. A salad like this will earn a place of honor on your festive table, and no one will be able to walk past it without taking a taste. Help yourself!
