Ingredients:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

4 large eggs

4 medium potatoes

4 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 tablespoons diced pickles

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

 

Boil the chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the pot and let it cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken into small pieces.

 

Boil and dice the eggs: In a separate pot, gently place the eggs and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and let them cook for approximately 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat, drain, and cool the eggs. Peel and dice them into small cubes.

 

Prepare the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Boil the potato cubes in salted water until they are tender but still firm, for about 8-10 minutes. Drain and let them cool.

 

Combine the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced eggs, and boiled potatoes. Add mayonnaise, diced pickles, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly coated.

 

Let it chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld together and for the Olvieh to develop its delightful taste.

 

Serve and garnish: Once chilled, transfer the Olvieh to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or dill, for an extra touch of freshness and visual appeal.
