Preparation Steps
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients: thaw and thoroughly rinse the chicken fillet. Peel the onion. Get a pot and a frying pan ready for the next steps.
Step 2
Place the chicken fillet in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once the water boils, carefully skim off any foam and add salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer the fillet for 30 minutes.
Step 3
Dice the onions and pickles into small, uniform pieces so they disperse evenly throughout the soup and impart a rich flavor.
Step 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet. Sauté the chopped onion and cucumbers over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes until golden. Then pour in 4 tablespoons of broth from the chicken pot, cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and simmer the vegetables for 10 minutes until they are soft and fragrant.
Step 5
Slice the sausages into neat rounds, and dice the salami and ham into small cubes, so they blend harmoniously with the texture of the solyanka.
Step 6
Remove the chicken fillet from the broth, let it cool slightly, then dice it into small pieces so it can be easily mixed with the other ingredients.
Step 7
Add the sautéed onions and pickles, sliced sausages, cured sausage, ham, and chicken to the boiling broth. Wait for it to boil again, then simmer the soup for another 10 minutes to allow all the flavors to meld.
Step 8
Add a bay leaf to the pot and season the soup with ground black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes to allow the spices to release their aroma.
Step 9
Turn off the heat. Add the olives to the solyanka and mix thoroughly. Let the soup steep under the lid for 10-15 minutes to allow it to fully develop its flavor and aroma.
Step 10
When serving, garnish each portion with a thin lemon slice and a dollop of sour cream to add freshness and tenderness to the dish.
