Method

1

Cuocere il petto di pollo in acqua leggermente salata per 15 minuti fino a cottura; una volta cotto, tagliarlo a dadini e lasciarlo raffreddare completamente.

2

In una pentola d'acqua salata bollente, aggiungere le patate e le carote a dadini; cuocere per 8 minuti fino a mezza cottura, quindi aggiungere i piselli surgelati e cuocere ancora 2 minuti.

3

Scolare le verdure e trasferirle in una terrina, lasciandole raffreddare a temperatura ambiente, quindi in frigorifero per almeno 15 minuti.

4

Nel frattempo preparare la maionese light: in una ciotola montare l'uovo con il sale, il pepe e la senape usando una frusta.

5

Versare lentamente l'olio goccia a goccia mentre si continua a montare, fino a ottenere un'emulsione densa e cremosa.

6

Incorporare lo yogurt greco e il succo di limone per rendere la maionese più leggera e aumentarne il volume.

7

In una ciotola capiente, unire le verdure fredde, il pollo a dadini, il tonno sgocciolato e i sottaceti.

8

Versare la maionese light sulle verdure e mescolare delicatamente fino a incorporare tutto uniformemente.

9

Coprire con pellicola e riporre in frigorifero per almeno 30 minuti prima di servire.
