How to cook:
1. Tear the boiled chicken fillet into pieces and place it in a salad dish. If there is no form, then use a plastic bottle.
If your meat is raw, then boil it for 30 minutes or bake for 40 minutes in the oven, setting 190 degrees.
2. Lubricate it with mayonnaise. If you want it, you can use homemade.
3. Put the onion on top, which is cut very finely. If you want to add mushrooms to the salad, then add them immediately after the onions.
