Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with beans, chicken and carrots? Prepare all the products you will need. If you have frozen chicken breast, remove it from the freezer first and leave it at room temperature until completely thawed. Cut the chicken breast into two pieces lengthwise as shown in the photo. For this salad, the breast can also be baked or boiled.

2. STEP 2

   

   Prepare the chicken marinating sauce. Pour 3-4 tbsp into a small deep container. olive oil, add a pinch of salt, ground black and red pepper and garlic powder to taste. At this stage, you can add your favorite spices; thyme, dry basil or oregano, curry, etc. are perfect for marinade. I took 0.5 tsp of each spice.

3. STEP 3

   

   Mix everything until smooth.

4. STEP 4

   

   Rinse the breast and dry with paper towels. Using a silicone brush, apply the marinade to the fillet and leave it this way for 15-20 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   At this time, take care of your vegetables. Peel the carrots and onions, rinse and dry. Cut the onion into thin half rings, and grate the carrots using a coarse grater or a vegetable slicer for Korean salads.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour a small amount of olive or vegetable oil into a frying pan and heat it. Fry the onions and carrots. Stirring, cook until soft and golden brown over medium heat. It took me about 5-6 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   In a separate pan, heat the remaining oil and fry the marinated chicken breasts. Cook over moderate heat until golden brown on one side (about 3-4 minutes), then turn the fillet over and leave until cooked (about 4 more minutes). Remove the breasts from the pan, place on a napkin and cool.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the canned beans in a colander and keep under running cold water. Place the beans in a deep bowl.

9. STEP 9

   

   Cut the fillet into strips or separate into large fibers by hand.

10. STEP 10

    

    Add chicken to beans.

11. STEP 11

    

    Next, add fried onions and carrots to all the ingredients.

12. STEP 12

    

    Season the salad with chicken, beans, carrots and onions with mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste. The amount of mayonnaise can be increased or decreased to taste. Two tablespoons were enough for me for the specified amount of food. Rinse the dill, dry and chop finely. Add to salad.

13. STEP 13

    

    Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Our salad with chicken, red beans and carrots is ready! You can decorate it with herbs and serve.

I'm interested in the recipe: salad with beans, chicken and carrots! Minimal ingredients and easy to prepare. I just fried the chicken fillet in a frying pan in baking paper. Finely chopped the onion and grated the carrots on a fine grater. Fry the onions and carrots until tender and cool. Opened the beans, drained the liquid and rinsed them a little with water. I cut the chicken fillet into strips and put it in a salad bowl. Then I added refried beans, mayonnaise, and stirred. When serving, I sprinkled with chopped dill. Try it and you won’t regret it! Thanks to the author for the recipe 😘
