Dice the carrots, potatoes, pickles, eggs and chicken breast.

Mince the onion.

Add some cooking oil to the potatoes to prevent them sticking together.

Add the rest of the ingredients over the potatoes and stir in the mayonnaise (homemade is the best choice) and the sour cream. The mixture of mayonnaise and sour cream gives a creamier consistency to the salad. Although many prefer to use Bologna sausage, my mother always substituted the sausage for chicken breast.
