Salad in orange with chicken and mushrooms is ideal for any festive occasion, as serving in orange halves looks very original. Therefore, when choosing a fruit, it is better to give preference to fruits of medium size and a neat round shape. It is also better to choose a ripe orange so that the salad does not get too bright citrus sourness.
