Salad Olivier (Persian Potato Salad)

Recipe
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Lunch
Cuisine: Central Asian

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Hard Boiled Eggs don't over boil them, just about 8 or 9 minutes is enough most of the time
  • 2 Tbsp. Mayo
  • 2 Tsp. Olive Oil
  • 1 Tsp. Pepper
  • 2 Tsp. Salt
  • 1 Cooked Chicken Breast cut up (I like a chicken breast from an actual whole chicken for this, but you can use your standard chicken breast)
  • 4 Cornichon Pickles diced
  • 2 Potatoes boiled, soft enough to dice, but not so mushy they have no structural integrity at all

Method
 

  1. Dice up your eggs, potatoes, pickles, and chicken. Put them in a mixing bowl. Add your mayo, olive oil, pepper, and salt. Mix together (don't smush it so it becomes a mushy mess though). Just mix it enough so everything is even and consistent. If you need more mayo, add more, you don't want it to be dry.
  2. Serve on whatever bread you like, or eat it by itself.
