Korean carrot, chicken and Chinese cabbage salad
Ingredients
Most recipes for salads from Peking cabbage with Korean carrots and
fresh cucumber are easy to
prepare:
it is enough to cut the ingredients and mix them in a salad bowl. Liquid seasoning for such a
snack can
serve as mayonnaise, as well as more useful products – sour cream, natural yogurt, vegetable oil
or
original
This is the simplest and fastest version of this salad. And it is also very useful, because it
contains
ingredients rich in vitamins and other useful substances
Named so because it's made from shredded cabbage, like a traditional Coleslaw, but other than
that, it
couldn't be more different! Without the oily mayonnaise dressing, this Asian salad is fresh,
bright and
crisp, but certainly not devoid of flavor.
Coocking :
To prepare this simple, quick and delicious salad, we will need the following ingredients: Peking
cabbage, Korean carrots, fresh cucumbers, chicken breast, mayonnaise, salt and ground black
pepper.
We put the chicken breast to cook (or fillet from the hips, for example, if you want - 350
grams). In
general, there are two basic rules according to which it is customary to cook it. If you need
broth, the
meat is put in cold water, and when you cook the breast itself (for example, for the same salads),
put
it in boiling water. Then the breast will turn out juicy and very soft, since it will not have
time to
give all its juices to the broth. Thus, we put the breast in boiling water and cook at a moderate
boil
for about 15 minutes (after the water boils for the second time - the boiling stops when you lay
the
meat, as the water temperature decreases). However, it is important to understand that the cooking
time
depends on the size of the piece or pieces.
Cucumbers (300 grams are two rather large fruits) are washed, dried and cut into thin cubes.
When the breast is cooked, we take it out of the broth and let the meat cool down. The broth is
also
used for cooking the first dishes.
