Ingredients

• 1 large Cucumber
• 6 medium Radishes
• 200 grams Cooked chicken breast
• 3 stalks Green onions
• 2 tablespoons Dill
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 500 milliliters Kefir (or Greek yogurt, thinned with water)
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 large Boiled eggs
• 1 large Avocado

Directions

Step 1

Begin by dicing the cucumber and radishes into small, even cubes and place them into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Chop the cooked chicken breast into similarly sized cubes as the vegetables.

Step 3

Finely slice the green onions, dill, and fresh parsley, then add them to the bowl with the cucumber, radishes, and chicken.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the kefir (or thinned yogurt), lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the liquid mixture over the diced vegetables and chicken, stirring gently to coat all ingredients in the bowl.

Step 6

Chop the boiled eggs into small pieces and add them to the soup, stirring gently to incorporate.

Step 7

Dice the avocado into cubes and add it to the soup just before serving to prevent browning.

Step 8

Chill the okroshka in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve cold in bowls, and garnish with additional dill and a lemon wedge, if desired.
