Step-by-step preparation of chicken salad in soy-lemon dressing, recipe with photo:
1. Wash green onions, dry and chop finely.
2. Wash and dry the cucumbers with a paper towel. Cut off the ends on both sides and cut the gherkins into cubes with sides about 0.5 mm. If the fruit is bitter, peel it off. For the recipe, take young small vegetables, because large fruits contain large seeds that will spoil the taste of the salad.
3. Boil the eggs until they are cool. To do this, put them in cold water, boil and cook for 8-10 minutes. Then transfer to a container of ice water and cool completely. Peel cold eggs and cut into cucumber-sized cubes.
4. Cut the processed cheese into cubes of the same size as all the products. If the cheese is wrinkled when slicing, soak it in the freezer for 15 minutes beforehand, it will freeze slightly and cut well.
5. Pre-boil the chicken in salted water and cool. Then cut into slices or tear along the fibers. Do not pour out the broth, but use it to cook soup or any other dish. It can also be frozen for future use in the freezer.
Combine all foods in one bowl. In a small bowl, mix the mustard, soy sauce with vegetable oil and season the ingredients. Toss the chicken salad in the soy lemon dressing, chill in the refrigerator, and serve.
