How to make a salad with smoked chicken, prunes and walnuts? Prepare the products. Any part of it will work from chicken - breast, thighs or shins, like mine. Take prunes without seeds. Boil potatoes, carrots and eggs beforehand and cool. Instead of mayonnaise, you can take sour cream.

How to cook vegetables for salad? Wash the tubers well with a brush under running water, fold them into a saucepan. Fill with clean cold water, set to cook on medium heat. After boiling, cook the potatoes with the carrots for about 30 minutes. The exact time will depend on the size of the vegetables. Check your readiness with a knife - it should easily pierce the fetus. Chill and peel the boiled vegetables. Grate the potatoes on a coarse grater.

Place the potatoes in the first layer on a plate using a cooking ring and lightly compress. Grease the layer with mayonnaise. Cut the meat off the bones, cut it into small cubes. Put the chicken in the next layer. Rinse prunes and dry them. If it is stiff, soak it briefly in hot water. My prunes are soft. Cut the prunes into small pieces as well. Put it on the chicken. Brush these two layers with mayonnaise on top.

Grate hard-boiled eggs on a coarse grater. Put in the next layer, also lightly compress. Brush a layer of eggs with mayonnaise.

Grate the carrots also on a coarse grater, put them on the eggs. Brush with mayonnaise.

Grate the cheese, but already on a medium grater - so the salad will turn out more gently. Place the grated cheese in a ring over everyone else. The layer of cheese no longer needs to be greased.

Finely cut walnuts with a knife. Sprinkle over the salad with chopped nuts. Put it in the fridge to soak an hour for two.

Remove the cooking ring, decorate the salad if desired and serve to the table. Enjoy your meal!
