Salad ingredients

Before preparing the salad, you need to prepare all the necessary products. The chicken for the dish can be boiled, fried or baked. When preparing chicken, you can use a variety of spices; they will make the taste of the salad richer. The salad, which is prepared using smoked chicken, has a bright taste.

Ready and well-chilled chicken should be freed from skin and bones and cut into small pieces or disassembled into fibers.

The second required ingredient is beans. If you use dry beans, you should start preparing the salad the day before. It is necessary to soak the beans for several hours (or overnight) in cold water, and then boil until soft. Salt is added when the beans become soft. Drain the finished beans through a colander, rinse with cold water and allow to cool.

You can prepare a snack much faster if you use canned beans. You just need to rinse it before adding it to the salad. You should choose canned food prepared without adding tomatoes.

You can prepare salads with green beans; they can be fresh or frozen . In the first case, the pods need to be cleared of the hard veins running through the middle of the pod and cut into pieces 1.5-2 cm long. Fresh frozen beans are sold already prepared for cooking. Next, you need to lower the product into salted boiling water and cook for about 5 minutes. The broth is drained and the product is allowed to cool before adding to the salad.

The remaining components of the salad are prepared in accordance with the recipe. For dressing use vegetable oil, mayonnaise or other cold sauces.

hard cheese - 200 gr;
white crackers - 1 pack;
canned red beans - 1 can;
lettuce - 1 bunch;
sour cream - to taste;
mayonnaise - to taste;
tomatoes - 1 piece

The first and simplest thing is to open the crackers and pour them into a salad bowl. Provided that the breast is already cooked, if not, then first cook the chicken breast.

Then wash the beans. I like it better in tomato sauce, as it is a little softer, and if you rinse it with hot water, the skin will become even softer.

Let the water drain and transfer the beans to the crackers.

The longest part of preparing a salad is boiling the breast. We cut it quite finely, about the size of a bean. In general, I don’t insist, you can cut it as you want or like.

We send it to the salad bowl.

Three cheeses.

We cut the greens. There is no need to grind it particularly. Although chefs recommend tearing all the greens with your hands rather than cutting them.

Mix.

Cut the tomato into cubes.

Mix all the ingredients.

Add sour cream and mayonnaise (about two tablespoons each). Although, you can stop at just one thing.

Add salt to taste. Personally, I didn’t add any, as for me - so it turned out well.

We can decorate the finished salad with leaves.

It is advisable to prepare this salad in advance to let it brew for at least two hours, or you can leave it overnight. The less it costs, the harder the crackers. And this is a matter of taste.
