Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Potatoes, small
- 2 pieces Carrots, medium
- 100 grams Low-fat yogurt
- 100 grams Low-fat mayonnaise
- 3 pieces Dill pickles
- 100 grams Frozen peas
- 200 grams Cooked chicken breast
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by peeling the potatoes and carrots, then boil them in a pot of water until they are tender, which should take about 20 minutes.
While the potatoes and carrots are boiling, cook the frozen peas by steaming them for about 5 minutes, then set them aside to cool.
Dice the dill pickles and chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and chop the green onions finely.
Once the potatoes and carrots are cooked, let them cool slightly, then cut them into small cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, carrots, diced chicken, dill pickles, green onions, and peas.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the low-fat yogurt and low-fat mayonnaise to create the dressing. Add salt and black pepper to the dressing and mix well.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl. Gently mix everything together until all ingredients are well-coated with the dressing.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve cold as a delightful side dish or a light main course.
