2 servings

30 minutes

A hearty salad with chicken, cheese, and croutons embodies the coziness of home and the taste of Russian cuisine. Its history goes back to the traditions of simple yet nutritious dishes that provide enjoyment and energy. Tender chicken breast, lightly stewed to softness, harmoniously combines with crispy croutons and fresh vegetables. Hard cheese adds zest while sour cream makes the flavor tender and rich. Red beans bring a rich texture, refreshing each bite of the salad. This salad is perfect as a standalone dish or as an addition to the main menu. It is versatile: light yet nutritious; it can be served for a casual dinner or at a festive table. It is especially delicious when croutons are added just before serving to maintain their crispy texture.
