Russian Chicken and Beet Salad

Russian Chicken and Beet Salad
  • 2 potatoes
  • 2 beets
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, or to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise, divided, or to taste
  • 1 pomegranate, seeds only, or more to taste


  1. Place potatoes, beets, and carrots into a large saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool, at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Peel potatoes, beets, and carrots. Coarsely grate vegetables and eggs into separate, individual bowls. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Place a small glass in the middle of a serving plate. Layer salad around the glass into a bracelet-like shape in the following order: potatoes, 1/2 the beets, carrots, walnuts, 1/2 the chicken, onion, eggs, remaining chicken, remaining beets, topping each addition with 1 tablespoons mayonnaise except for the walnuts, onion, and last beet layer.
  5. Remove the glass and cover salad with the remaining 6 tablespoons mayonnaise. Garnish the top with pomegranate seeds.
