Using the most common products, but fantasizing about their combination and ratio to each other, you can achieve the most unusual salad tastes. Confirmation of this is the dish with smoked chicken and pickled onions. Despite the presence of other ingredients in the salad, these are the ones that set the tone.
It is necessary
- - smoked chicken meat - 300 g,
- - Korean carrot salad - 300 g,
- - boiled or canned beans - 300 g,
- - 1 large onion,
- - salt, sugar, vinegar, mayonnaise.
Instructions
Step 1
There are many variants of salad, in which smoked chicken meat is combined with carrots, onions and beans, but often raw carrots grated on a coarse grater are taken, fried with onions in vegetable oil. It turns out satisfying, but too fat together with mayonnaise. In this recipe, a ready-made Korean-style carrot salad is used, the pungency of which is reduced by the neutral taste of beans, and smoked chicken in combination with pickled onions just gives the finished dish a kebab taste.
Step 2
If you use a ready-made salad called "carrot" and canned beans from the store, then the salad is prepared very quickly. All that remains is to marinate the onion, cut the flesh of the smoked chicken breast or legs into cubes, combine all the ingredients and season the salad with mayonnaise. Fast, but not cheap. Having boiled beans and learned how to cook carrots on your own, you can kill two birds with one stone, or even three. After all, a spicy carrot salad will be an independent dish and will be able to successfully complement funchose, kebab-flavored salad and many others.
Step 3
Therefore, the first step is to rinse a glass of beans, pour cold water over it and put it on fire. The beans will cook faster if, as they boil, add a little cold water to the pan. It is important that the beans retain their shape during the cooking process. While it is cooking, you can start making Korean carrot salad. 1, 5 kg of carrots must be washed and the top hardened layer removed from it with a knife or vegetable peeler. Then grate on a special grater so that you get long thin sticks.
Step 4
Chopped carrots are lightly sprinkled with salt and thoroughly kneaded until soft and plastic. Now vinegar essence (2 teaspoons) is poured in, the carrots are mixed and covered with a lid. While the carrots are marinated, you can prepare onions immediately for the carrots and for the future salad with the taste of barbecue, especially since for both, it is cut into thin half rings. One onion is sent to a frying pan with hot oil, and the other is doused with boiling water and poured with marinade.
Step 5
Marinade is a glass of boiled chilled water with the addition of 1 tsp. sugar, 1 tsp. salt and 1 tbsp. l. 9% vinegar. Instead of scalding the onions, you can simply rinse them in cold water, but then the pickling process will take longer. The scalded onions will be ready in about 20 minutes. The onions for carrots should be fried until golden brown and poured onto the carrots only after chopped garlic, black and red ground peppers have been added there. Fill all the seasonings with hot oil and onions, mix all the contents well and the carrot salad is ready to eat. Although some people prefer that it be infused for more than one hour.
Step 6
In the process of making carrot salad and pickling onions, do not forget about the beans, which are probably already ready. The main ingredients for a salad with a kebab flavor are taken in equal parts, that is, if there are 300 grams of smoked chicken, then the same amount of beans and carrot salad. There will be no big trouble if the proportions are slightly out of order. Now the salad is dressed with pickled onions and mayonnaise and mixed. Those who like it more sharply can add some more pepper. Experts say that it is the pickled component that gives the piquancy to the smoked chicken salad, which can be cucumbers, champignons, pickled cauliflower. And yet, you can only pamper yourself with "barbecue" using pickled onions.
