Classic salad recipe
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. To make the classic "Stolichny" salad, follow these steps. Boil chicken fillet, potatoes, and eggs. Cook the potatoes in their skins, choosing a firmer variety. Boil the chicken fillet in salted water—usually 20 minutes is enough. Let everything cool, then dice into cubes, peeling the eggs and potatoes first. Dice the remaining ingredients as well, then mix everything together in a salad bowl. Add peas and mayonnaise, and the salad is ready to serve.
