Quick Recipes Chicken Simple Recipes Budget Recipes Vegetables Salads
I first ate this salad in Bucharest about 5 years ago and was so delighted that it has remained in our menu ever since.
Ingredients
1 small chicken breast (about 300g)
1 large carrot
1 tart apple
1 slice celery root
3 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise
1-2 tablespoons buttermilk or yogurt (optional)
30g blue cheese (optional)
salt, pepper
How to prepare chicken salad with apple, celery and carrot
- The chicken breast can be grilled or boiled. Then cut it into cubes.
- Mix the mayonnaise with the crumbled blue cheese.
- Grate the celery, carrot, and apple on a coarse grater. Add the chicken cubes and then the mayonnaise until the mixture binds. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place in a bowl. I kept a piece of grilled chicken, sliced it, and placed it on top. I mixed the remaining mayonnaise with buttermilk and poured it over the chicken slices. Another serving idea would be in lettuce or endive leaves.
