We roasted a whole Chicken on Saturday. We never manage to eat a whole Chicken in one sitting between the two of us, so we had the best part of half of the meat in the fridge. It really was too warm last night for another cooked meal so we opted for a quick Chicken and Bacon salad which only needed the Bacon grilling and a Potato boiling.
Ingredients:-
Cooked Chicken, stripped and cubed
4 Rashers of Bacon, grilled and cut into strips
2 Spring Onion, sliced
2 Gherkins, finely chopped
Black Pepper
Mayonnaise
1 Large Potato. Boiled, cooled and cubed
A squeeze of Lime juice
Method:-
(1) Reserve the green tops from the Spring Onions and a little of the chopped Bacon.
(2) Mix everything else in a large bowl.
(3) Serve over a fresh green salad.
(4) Dress with the remaining Spring Onion and Bacon.
We still had a little left over, but that was doomed to become my breakfast!
Cheats because we didn't have 4 hours to spare so Sue accelerated the cooking time – see below.... We raided the local Polish Deli and happened across some Kielbasa Jalowcowa which is a type of Polish sausage, usually served as a cold cut. It is made from cuts of lean pork seasoned with pepper, allspice, coriander, and garlic, packed into large casings, and smoked.
