Refreshing Chicken Okroshka on Kefir

Traditional summer dish. It will satisfy your hunger even on the hottest day! For me, the taste of okroshka on kefir has been an integral component of summer since childhood. In the warm season, sometimes it gets so hot that you don’t even want to think about hot food, but your stomach demands food. This is where this recipe, simple to the point of genius, comes to the rescue. It is also convenient that the base for okroshka can not be filled with kefir, but mixed with mayonnaise or sour cream — you get a quite satisfying and at the same time refreshing salad. The advantage of this recipe is the use of boiled chicken breast as the meat component. It has a delicate taste and unique aroma, which only intensifies when adding bay leaves during cooking. It’s impossible to resist such okroshka!
