This smoked chicken salad with marinated mushrooms and cheese is a simple, tasty and nutritious salad. Can safely serve as an independent dish for lunch or dinner.
Ingredients (for 3 servings):
- Smoked chicken – 100-150 gr.
- Pickled mushrooms (honey mushrooms, chanterelles, oyster mushrooms or others) – 100 gr.
- Canned corn – 3 tbsp.
- Eggs – 2 pcs.
- Cheese (gouda type) – 50 gr.
- Mayonnaise – 2 tbsp.
- Greens – for decoration
Cooking process
Boil the eggs hard boiled (cook 7-8 minutes after boiling). Cool and peel. Cut into small cubes.
Cut the smoked chicken into cubes. You can remove the skin from the chicken if you like. You can also substitute smoked chicken for grilled chicken.
Pickled mushrooms cut into small pieces.
Gouda cheese (or other cheese of this type) is rubbed on a fine grater.
Add canned corn.
Mix all prepared ingredients gently. If desired, you can salt (I usually do not salt salads with mayonnaise). Add mayonnaise and mix again. To make the salad not too greasy, I prefer to add sour cream mayonnaise. This mayonnaise is lighter than its classic version.
To serve smoked chicken salad to the table, I use a small ring culinary form. On top of the salad, you can sprinkle with finely grated cheese. We also decorate it with small mushrooms and finely chopped dill. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
Alternatively, you can not mix all the salad ingredients together, but lay them out in layers. Making small layers of mayonnaise between the layers. It is also convenient to prepare a puff salad using a culinary ring mold.
