How to make a salad with fried chicken? Prepare the products that will be required for the recipe. In order for the finished dish to look more appetising and brightly, it is possible to use bell peppers of different colors. First of all, boil the eggs hard-boiled and cool.

Rinse the chicken breast and dry with paper wipes. Cut each piece of meat lengthwise into two plates. Sprinkle with your favorite spices and salt to taste on both sides. I used a pinch of smoked paprika, ground peppers, garlic powder and dry basil. Rub the spices over the surface of the fillet and leave to marinate for 5-10 minutes.

In a thick-bottomed frying pan, heat the vegetable oil. Fry the chicken on both sides over a high heat until tender and until the appetising golden crust appears. This will take very little time (5-10 minutes). Do not overextend the fillet in the pan or it will become dry.

Place the fried pieces in a separate plate and cool.

Rinse vegetables and lettuce sheets. Cut the skin from the cucumbers if necessary. Peel the eggs from the shell, cut the bell peppers into two and remove the seeds with the core.

Dry each lettuce leaf thoroughly. Narwhite sheets arbitrarily into medium-sized pieces. Chop the cooled chicken into thin bars with a sharp knife or grind with your hands as you like. Send the salad and fillet to a deep, suitable container.

Cut the cucumbers into thin circles or semicircles, and grind the bell peppers in large strips or cubes. Send to the salad bowl.

Cut the eggs into small wedges and add to all components in the bowl.

For a richer taste, onions can be added to the list of components. Red salad onions, thinly chopped, will look bright and beautiful. Add the mayonnaise, salt to taste and dry spices to the bowl. Mayonnaise can be replaced with sour cream or natural yogurt.

Stir the salad before serving and garnish with a few sprigs of parsley or dill.
