Step-by-step recipe for a classic salad with chicken and pineapple

Being a big lover of multi-ingredient salads with mayonnaise, I never thought that fruits can be added to such dishes. And she always refused to even try such dishes. When in one of the bars I was offered a salad with crab sticks and tangerines, I flatly found myself and for a long time pondered how to mix such products with different tastes. At one of the friendly parties, I saw tartlets with a very appetizing filling and, without hesitation, grabbed a couple. The very first bite of the appetizer made me surprised, as the salad simply amazingly combined tender chicken meat, cheese and canned pineapples. On the first occasion, I prepared such a dish at home, supplementing the previously tried recipe with slightly fried walnuts.

Ingredients:

• 300 g canned pineapple;
• 300 g chicken fillet;
• 200 g of hard cheese;
• 2 eggs;
• 150 g mayonnaise;
• 100 g of walnut kernels;
• 2 pinches of salt;
• 1 sprig of fresh dill

Preparation:

1. Prepare food.

   

   To make a delicious salad, you need a few familiar and accessible ingredients.

2. Boil the chicken fillet in salted water, cut into cubes with a side of about 1 cm.

   

   For neat cubes, cut the chicken fillet across the grain with a sharp knife.

3. Throw the pineapples on a sieve, leave to drain the syrup.

4. Cut pineapples into cubes.

   

   Canned pineapples will make the salad juicy and give it a special touch.

5. Cut the boiled eggs into cubes too.

   

   Boiled eggs are easier to cut with a very sharp knife.

6. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.

   

   Absolutely any kind of hard cheese is suitable for making salad.

7. Put all food in a bowl.

   

   To easily mix the food, choose large-volume dishes

8. Season the salad with mayonnaise, stir, let it brew in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes.

   

   If the salad is dry, add more mayonnaise

9. Lightly fry the nuts in a dry frying pan.
10. Place the salad in a large salad bowl.

11. Sprinkle with walnuts and garnish with dill.

    

    Dill can be replaced with any other fresh herbs to your taste
