Layered mushroom salad with chicken
4 servings
130 minutes
The salad is not only delicious (we ate this salad very quickly), but its presentation can surprise guests: the salad is prepared in one bowl, and then effectively turned over onto a plate. And on this plate, in the clearing, mushrooms unexpectedly grow .
1
To prepare the salad, boil potatoes, eggs, chicken fillet, and carrots.
- Carrot: 2 pieces
- Chicken breast fillet: 200 g
- Chicken egg: 3 pieces
- Potato: 2 pieces

Grate carrots, potatoes, and eggs on a coarse grater.

- Potato: 2 pieces
3
Cut the chicken fillet into small cubes.
- Chicken breast fillet: 200 g
4
Lay food film in a pot or other container (you can grease it with vegetable oil, but food film is definitely more reliable, as you can pull it if the salad doesn't want to leave its beloved pot). Carefully place the mushrooms, cap side down, tightly next to each other on the food film.
- Marinated mushrooms: 0.5 kg
5
Chop the greens and sprinkle them over the mushrooms.
- Fresh herbs: 1 bunch
6
Squeeze some mayonnaise in a few places on top of the greens.

7
The next layer of the salad will be carrots. Carrots can be smeared with mayonnaise (I didn't smear them).

8
Cut the cucumbers into cubes, squeeze out the liquid, and place them on the carrots.
- Marinated cucumbers: 3 pieces

13
The last layer will be potatoes.

14
Spread with mayonnaise.

Some recipes suggest letting the salad sit in the fridge, but salads with mayonnaise are not recommended for long storage, so I didn't let the salad soak. I think the taste didn't suffer, my guests' health was more important.

The most difficult part remains — flipping the salad onto the plate. For this, you need to bring a pot of salad and a plate to the festive table, place the pot on the table, cover it with the plate, and carefully flip the pot. You can pull a bit on the plastic wrap — then the salad will definitely move onto the plate and delight your guests with its variety of mushrooms and taste.
