There are many recipes for chicken salads with pineapples, but it is with smoked meat and canned fruits that such a balanced, tender and at the same time savoury taste can be achieved. You can take any part of the smoked chicken, but the breast works best. It is fleshy, peel-free, easily sliced and looks beautiful in the finished version of the dish. It is better to cook eggs for salad in advance. If they are already cold by the start of the chicken slicing, this will significantly reduce the total time spent cooking the salad. Traditionally, in layered salads, each layer is sprinkled with a small amount of salt. This is not necessary here, the chicken is already completely ready, and does not require additional spices, and mayonnaise has enough salt to season the rest of the ingredients. Cut the chicken into a small cube and lay out in an even layer on the bottom of a wide dish, in which we will serve the ready-made salad to the table. We peel the onions, cut mine and finely. You can use a cube or a thin straw, if desired. Spread the onions on top of the chicken and grease with a little mayonnaise. Hard-boiled eggs are peeled and chopped with a small cube. We lay eggs on top of the chicken, evenly distribute so that there are no empty places or slides. We cover with a small layer of mayonnaise. We rub hard cheese of any grade on a coarse grater and evenly sprinkle the previous layer. Grease with mayonnaise and proceed to the final step. Cut the canned pineapple into a cube. If the pineapple is chosen not with washers, but with cubes, discard the required amount on the sieve, and leave to drain for a few minutes. We evenly distribute the pineapple pieces over the surface of the salad and can be served to the table. It is better not to wait, but to treat guests immediately after cooking. Divided vertically, it & amp; nbsp; it looks great with clearly defined layers, and all the ingredients are perfectly connected to each other. Enjoy your meal!
