Method
Slice the onion2 into half-rings and marinate in a mix of 50 ml water, vinegar, sugar, and 1 g salt for 10 minutes.
Mince the garlic3, chop the dill7, peel and grate the carrot5 coarsely, and grate the cheese.
Cut the chicken1 breast into 1 cm-thick slices across the grain and lightly pound to even thickness.
Arrange half the chicken1 slices in a single layer in a microwave-safe dish, sprinkle with garlic3 and salt, then top with half the drained onions2 and half the grated carrot5. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise over the top.
Repeat with the remaining chicken1, onions2, carrot5, and mayonnaise.
Cover with a lid and microwave on high for 12 minutes, then sprinkle with cheese and cook for another 4 minutes until melted.
Check for doneness: the meat should be white, and the juices clear. Garnish with dill7 and serve.
