Red cabbage salad with smoked chicken

 Ingredients: - 1 small red cabbage - 2 tomatoes - 4 green onion stalks (or one smaller dry onion) - 1 can of corn - 2 pieces of smoked chicken breast - 1/2 bunch of parsley - salt, pepper, oil optional: - 2 peppers - olives

The cabbage is thoroughly washed under a stream of cold water, then finely chopped with a sharp knife, taking care to obtain uniform strips for easier softening. After cutting the cabbage, we place it in a large bowl and add salt, mixing with our hands to help release the juices. The cabbage leaves will soften, becoming more tender and tastier. This step is essential as it salts the cabbage and gives it a pleasant flavor.

Next, we take care of the other ingredients. Fresh tomatoes are diced into small cubes so that they integrate perfectly into the mixture, bringing a sweet and sour taste that will contrast nicely with the cabbage. The onion is peeled and finely chopped, adding a flavorful note and a crunchy texture to the dish. If you prefer, you can use red onion for an extra splash of color and a sweeter taste.

Carefully selected chicken meat is cut into equal-sized cubes to cook evenly. It is recommended to use chicken breast for a leaner option or thighs if you prefer more flavor. Drained canned corn is then added to the bowl, bringing a note of sweetness and crunch. We have already created a delicious base!

After all the ingredients are added, fresh chopped parsley is poured in, which will bring a fresh aroma and vibrant color to the dish. Finally, it is important to adjust the taste. So, we check if more salt is needed and add freshly ground pepper to taste. We carefully mix all the ingredients, ensuring that the flavors combine harmoniously.

Finally, we pour olive oil over the ingredients in the bowl, adding a note of richness and creaminess to the dish. We mix again so that the oil coats all the ingredients evenly. This dish can be served as a fresh and nutritious salad or cooked over heat to intensify the flavors. Regardless of the chosen version, it is a recipe full of color and flavor, perfect for any meal!
