Chicken salad with Chinese cabbage and prunes
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Add boiled fillet to the salad along with fresh cucumber and Chinese cabbage. For a tangy flavor, include prunes and a handful of walnuts. Thanks to the Chinese cabbage, the salad turns out fluffy and should always be served immediately after preparation to preserve its lightness. For dressing, you can use either mayonnaise or sour cream—both variations taste delicious. Serve at once.
