It honestly lives up to its name! Delicate taste and freshness – that’s what determines the taste of this dish.

In the recipe, we will mix mayonnaise with sour cream, which will make the salad not as “heavy” as if only mayonnaise was used. The combination of ingredients is great! Hearty chicken fillet and ham, sweetness of prunes and freshness of cucumber. We are sure that this salad will become one of your and your guests’ favorites!

How to cook:

1. First of all, we will prepare the sauce with which we will coat the layers of lettuce. To do this, mix mayonnaise and sour cream. The fat content of sour cream can be any, to your taste.

If desired, add a little lemon juice to the sauce.

12. Lay out the next layer of lettuce. We press the cheese on a fine grater and evenly distribute it on a layer of ham. Since the cheese is dry, it is necessary to generously coat it with our sauce.
