Olivier diet
3 servings
60 minutes
Dietary Olivier is a light and healthy version of the famous salad traditionally associated with holidays. Instead of regular mayonnaise, low-fat yogurt or sour cream is used, and the meat ingredient consists of boiled chicken breast, making the dish lower in calories while retaining a rich flavor. The addition of sour apple adds freshness, while pickled cucumbers provide a pleasant tanginess. Green peas add a slight sweetness, and tender pieces of potato and carrot give the familiar texture. This dish is perfect for those who watch their diet but do not want to give up their favorite traditions. It pairs well with light meat dishes and beautifully complements the festive table. It is best served chilled to fully reveal all flavor nuances.
