How to make an Anthill salad with chicken and potato straws? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Any parts of the chicken are suitable: hips, shins, fillet. I took my hips, with them the salad turns out to be more juicy. Take tomatoes meaty if possible, with less juice.

Boil a small amount of water in a saucepan. Wash the chicken, lower into boiling salted water and cook over medium heat until tender for 25-35 minutes.

Remove the finished chicken from the stock and cool. Separate the meat from the bones and cut into straws or small pieces.

Peel and grate the pre-washed potatoes for Korean carrots so they are straw-shaped.

Put the potato straws in a colander, rinse several times in cold water to wash off the starch. This is necessary so that the potatoes do not stick together during frying. Place the potatoes on a towel to remove excess moisture.

In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil and place a portion of potato straws on it. Fry it over medium heat with frequent stirring until golden. Spread the potatoes in small portions so that they are cooked evenly. You don't need to salt.

Leave the finished potato straws to cool.

Grate the cheese over a coarse grater.

Rinse vegetables thoroughly under cold water. Cut the cucumbers into strips. The skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut.

Cut the tomatoes into small bars.

Place a layer of 2/3 prepared chicken on a plate, apply a mesh of mayonnaise on top.

Put 2/3 of the chopped cucumbers in the next layer and mayonnaise again. Do not press the layers, the salad should be loose.

Place 2/3 of the tomato and salt.

Put 2/3 of the grated cheese in the fourth layer.

Repeat all layers with the remaining ingredients, rinsing the layers with mayonnaise. At the same time, form each next layer with a slightly smaller diameter than the previous one to make a slide.

Apply mayonnaise strips to the top and sides of the salad.

Top with a thick sprinkle of potato straws over the salad.

Wash dill in cold water, dry, chop finely. Dill the salad down the circle.

It is better to serve the salad immediately, while the potato straws are the most crisp and appetizing. Enjoy your meal!
