Ingredients to make Chicken and Apple Salad with Mayonnaise:

How to make Chicken Apple Salad with Mayonnaise:
The first thing we have to do to prepare chicken and apple salad with mayonnaise is to cook the chicken breasts in a pot with plenty of boiling water until they are well done. Once cooked, we drain them, cut them into chicken tacos and reserve them for later.
Tip: If you prefer, you can fry the chicken breasts instead of cooking them to make them more palatable.
Meanwhile, wash the lettuce leaves well and break them a little with your hands. We place them on the plate where we are going to put the chicken and apple salad as a base.
Separately, we also peel and cut the carrots and cucumbers into cubes. If you prefer you can grate the carrots instead of cutting them into small pieces but I prefer that they crunch when I bite into them.
And at the end we wash the apples well because we are not going to peel them; we remove the core and also cut them into cubes. We do this at the last moment so that this fruit does not have time to oxidize, since it tends to do so very quickly.
Finally, we place the apples, cucumbers, carrots and chicken in a bowl, add the tablespoons of homemade mayonnaise or purchased to taste, season the green salad and mix well to integrate all our flavors. So our chicken and apple salad with mayonnaise will be very tasty, although if you like you can also add a few chopped nuts or other nuts that you like. Bon Appetite!
