I like to prepare a variety of salads, but most often they are with mayonnaise. I wanted something light and low-calorie. I prepared a salad with chicken and vegetables according to this recipe. Boil the chicken for 20 minutes. Bell pepper and cucumber cut into strips. I also cut the cooled chicken breast into strips. Added: salt, pepper, vegetable oil, lemon juice, mixed everything. This made a great salad for dinner. I recommend the recipe!
