How to make a squid salad with fried chicken and cucumbers
With squid and chicken, you can create a huge variety of dishes. In this recipe, add pickled cucumbers and apples to them — this will give juiciness to the salad.
Step-by-step recipe
| 1. |
Squid after defrosting, pour boiling water to separate the skin. After that, we will wash them well and remove the insides and hard spine. It is not necessary to boil, since we will fry squid. Cut into strips and move on to the chicken. |
| 2. |
It is better to take a breast or a thigh fillet. Cut into small pieces and send to a hot frying pan. Stirring constantly, fry for about 5 minutes. Add the chopped squid and cook for another 5 minutes. During the frying process, you should add your favorite spices, pepper and salt — so the fillet will better reveal its taste. |
| 3. |
Remove the skin from the apple and cut into small strips. If you have a large grater for straws, then use it. For the salad, take a green apple with moderate hardness. Do not take soft varieties — they will quickly lose their structure. Salted cucumbers are cut with thin feathers. To do this, divide the cucumber lengthwise into two halves and begin to crumble at an angle of 45 degrees with thin leaves. Finely crumble the greens. |
| 4. |
Before mixing the ingredients, you need to wait for the chicken and squid to cool down. Add vegetable oil and squeeze half a lemon. If desired, you can use mayonnaise — it also perfectly binds the components of this salad. We give the dish to infuse for half an hour and serve it to the table! |
