Smoked chicken salad
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. The dish is very tasty, simple to make, and has an original appearance. I used grape berries for decoration, but if you don't have them, I think olives would work just as well—no one will notice the substitution. Instead of grape leaves, I used parsley, which can be replaced with cilantro. This salad will be a great addition to any table. The salad is ready to serve.
