Layered salad with chicken and pineapples

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make Layered Chicken and Pineapple Salad? Prepare your food. Wash vegetables and herbs and dry. Boil the potatoes in a convenient way in their skins. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes from the start of boiling and immediately cool with cold water, this will clean them well and there will be no gray rim around the yolk.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place the pineapples in a colander, let the syrup drain well, then cut into medium segments. In jars with ready-made pieces, there are pieces with the core left; such hard places must be carefully removed so as not to deprive the salad of the necessary tenderness.

3. STEP 3

   

   Since the salad will be prepared in layers, it is convenient to grate and cut the necessary products in advance, placing them in separate bowls. Remove the skin and bones from the leg and cut the meat into small cubes. Also finely chop the bell pepper, cucumber, Chinese cabbage and greens. Grate the egg and cheese on a coarse grater; it is permissible to mix them in one bowl, because they will be laid out in one layer. Separately, grate the potatoes coarsely.

4. STEP 4

   

   If the nuts were purchased shelled, be sure to rinse and dry them in advance. Or lightly dry it in a dry frying pan, it’s a matter of taste. Then cut it with a knife, but not very finely. You can take a different nut depending on your taste or availability, but it is advisable to add it to the salad; it will enrich the taste with a pleasant tartness. Will also serve as decoration.

5. STEP 5

   

   Having prepared all the products, all that remains is to lay them out in layers, greasing each with a mesh of mayonnaise. The order is as follows: 1st - Beijing cabbage. 2nd - Potatoes, add a little salt. 3rd - Greens.

6. STEP 6

   

   Then 4th - Layer of meat, sprinkle with a mixture of peppers if desired. 5th - Cucumber, add salt to it too. 6th and 7th Egg and cheese /or mix or alternately/. This light layer can be left as the top layer, depending on how you plan to decorate the salad; it provides a smooth surface, so there is a lot of room for imagination. If replaced, pineapples will take its place.

7. STEP 7

   

   Well, if there was no replacement, the 8th layer will be bell pepper. 9th - pineapples and between them nuts and sprigs of greenery.

8. STEP 8

   

   That's it, the delicious salad is ready to delight you! For a special occasion and so, for every day. If the salad bowl is large, repeat the layers. It will look good, like all layered salads, in a transparent salad bowl or in the shape of a circle with a ring in the center, so all the layers are visible.

Beautiful ! Serving salad in a glass always looks very advantageous and will decorate any table, whether it is festive or not. But how to eat it??? After all, you can’t mix it anymore...

Pineapples combined with chicken - exotic and very tasty! I made a layered salad with chicken and pineapples as a test, a small portion, and realized that now I would prepare a full-fledged large portion for a family holiday, so that there would be enough for all the guests. Very tasty! Thank you very much!
