Step 1:
How to make a salad with chicken, prunes, cucumber and cheese? Boil the eggs. Fill them with water, bring to a boil and cook in boiling water for 7-9 minutes. Then drain the hot water and fill the eggs with cold water so that they cool down faster. Pour boiling water over the prunes and leave for 10 minutes. Then drain the water, and rinse the prunes in running water. Then blot the prunes with a paper napkin to remove excess moisture. And cut it into small pieces.
Step 2:
Boil chicken fillet in boiling, salted water for 30 minutes. Then cool the meat and finely chop it.
Step 3:
In the prepared salad bowl, on the bottom, put the first layer of chopped chicken meat. Lubricate the layer with a small amount of mayonnaise.

Wash the fresh cucumber, cut off the tails and cut into small cubes. Put the sliced cucumber in a second layer in a salad bowl. Also, a little, smear with mayonnaise.
Step 5:
Peel the cooled eggs from the shell and rub them immediately into a salad bowl on a coarse grater. Press them a little with your hand and smear with mayonnaise.
Step 6:
Then lay out a layer of steamed prunes. And, also, add a little mayonnaise.
Step 7:
The last layer will be cheese. Grate it on a fine grater over the entire surface of the salad. Smooth it out a little and press it down.
Step 8:
Put the finished salad in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour so that the layers are soaked in each other's flavors. Enjoy your meal!

Salads with the addition of prunes always turn out very tasty. After all, it is prunes that give the overall taste of the salad some piquancy and easy sweetness. This combination may not be to everyone's taste. But it is quite popular in our family.
By the way, chicken for salad can be used not only boiled. The taste of the salad will only benefit from the smoked chicken.
In the presence of boiled meat, it will not be difficult to prepare such a salad. It takes very little time to prepare it. Therefore, you can cook it both for a family dinner and for a festive table.
The salad will look great in a serving.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
