Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make Obzhorka salad with chicken and pickles? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. I used breast fillet, but you can use another part of the chicken. Take large carrots and onions. Use unscented vegetable oil. It is better to take medium-sized cucumbers; they are not too watery.

Step 2

Step 2
Boil the chicken fillet. How to boil chicken fillet? Rinse it under running water, place it in a saucepan with slightly salted cold water, add bay leaf and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes after boiling. Then drain the water and cool the chicken fillet completely.

Peel the onion, rinse and cut into small cubes. Heat a frying pan, carefully so as not to burn yourself, pour vegetable oil onto it and add chopped onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes.

Peel the carrots, rinse and grate on a coarse grater. When the onions have softened and started to turn golden, add the carrots. Be sure to stir so that the vegetables cook evenly, become soft and do not dry out.

Remove hard stems and limp leaves from dill, wash, dry and chop finely. In a convenient container, combine all the prepared ingredients: chicken meat, fried vegetables, pickled cucumbers and dill. Season the salad with mayonnaise and mix. It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here for interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise. Add salt and pepper if necessary.
