  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    Peel the onion and slice it into half-rings.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    Pour boiling water over the sliced onion, add the vinegar, salt, and sugar, and leave it to quick-pickle.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Rinse the chicken breast, pat it dry, and cut it into thin strips.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Heat a skillet, add the oil, and lay in the chicken. Fry until lightly golden, seasoning with salt and pepper as it cooks.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Transfer it out of the skillet and let it cool completely.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Rinse the mushrooms, trim them if needed, and cut them into wedges. If a mushroom is large, halve it first and then cut it into wedges.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Fry the mushrooms in oil until golden, seasoning with salt and pepper.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8

    Transfer them out of the skillet and let them cool completely.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9

    Grate the boiled potatoes on the coarse side of a box grater.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10

    Carefully cut the eggs in half. Separate the yolks from the whites and set the yolks aside in a bowl.

    Step 11

    Press the garlic into the yolks, add a little mayonnaise, and mix well.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12

    Fill the egg-white halves with the yolk mixture.

  13. Step 13:

    Step 13

    Spread the meat over the bottom of a salad bowl. Top with an even layer of the pickled onion and spread with mayonnaise.

  14. Step 14:

    Step 14

    Next comes a layer of mushrooms and more mayonnaise.

  15. Step 15:

    Step 15

    Then a layer of potato, and mayonnaise again. Don't use too much mayonnaise — just enough to hold the layers together, not drown them.

  16. Step 16:

    Step 16

    Now arrange the stuffed egg whites on top like snowdrifts. You can even dust the whites themselves with a little cheese — it looks even nicer that way.

  17. Step 17:

    Step 17

    Sprinkle with finely grated cheese.

  18. Step 18:

    Step 18

    Garnish with pomegranate seeds and let the salad rest for a few hours so the flavors can meld.
