Chicken Salad - Katmis Salati

Описание: Chicken Salad (Katmis Salati)

This particular recipe can give chicken salad a brand new life. Colorful and delicious, this chicken salad is a refreshing snack or a side dish that can complement almost any meal and add a bite of spring taste to your table.

This concoction can enliven up a leftover chicken breast or freshly cooked chicken with the pizazz of fresh vegetables and herbs, namely carrots, corn, cucumber, scallions and fresh dill. The julienned thin strips of carrots, diced cucumbers and niblets of corn contribute a crunchy texture to an otherwise drab piece of chicken.

A swirl of homemade mayonnaise spiced with Dijon mustard gives a creamy blend to this diverse mixture. And fresh scallions and dill add a final bite to this salad. I adore the zesty taste of fresh dill when sprinkled on this salad.

Serve with toasted bread and a glass of good white wine.
