Chicken salad with vegetables

500 g cold roast chicken

2 cucumbers

Half a red onion

100 g pickled peppers

60 g green olives in brine

60 g black olives in brine

1 tuft basil

salt and pepper

extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

✅The preparation of chicken salad with vegetables is very simple. First peel the cucumbers with a peeler and then cut them into cubes. Then put them in a colander placed inside a bowl, add a pinch of fine salt and mix. Let stand for an hour, doing so will remove excess vegetable water and any bitter aftertaste.

✅Cut the chicken into pieces all the same size, and the red onion finely.

✅Place the diced chicken, cucumber, onion, pickled peppers cut into strips, olives, and basil leaves chopped with your hands in the bowl. Season with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly with a spoon and place to rest in the refrigerator until ready to serve at the table. 

Enjoy!
