I decided to prepare something new for our already borig quick meniu. This dish is very quick, if you do like me – boil chicken a day before. My hubby commended. I asked him maybe the dish is so good because almost all the week we ate what we had on hand? But he asured that no and ate almost everything, leaving just a few bites for my next day lunch… You can enjoy these salads and cold, and warm.
(4 servings)
225 g long-grain rice
600 ml vandens
salt
pepper
450 g cooked chicken
2 tbsps. mayonnaise
150 ml soured cream
1 tbsp. curry powder
1 tbsp. oil
1 tomato (optional, but it give some freshness)
Put the rice in a saucepan with the water and a little salt. Bring to the boil, cover and reduce the heat. Simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and all the water has been absorbed. Fluff up the grains with a fork and leave to cool. Arrange the rice in the base and to form a border round the rim of a serving dish. Dice the chicken and plave in a bowl. Cook the curry powder in the oil for 2-3 minutes, cool and mix with the remaining ingredients, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Toss with the chicken and spoon over the rice. Garnish with tomatoes, that will give the salads some freshness.
