Ingredients List
Important Notes
Traditionally, Olivier salad is dressed with mayonnaise or sour cream, but Greek yogurt offers a lighter, healthier alternative.
You can substitute chicken with boiled low-fat beef or Italian bologna/sausage.
If you want to add white onions, pouring boiling water over them beforehand makes them less sharp.
Adjust the pickle brine and salt carefully, as pickles already contain a lot of sodium.
