Ensalada Roja con Pollo (Red Salad with Chicken)

"My Venezuelan mother-in-law taught me to make this chicken salad. Don't let the 'red' part, which comes from beets, scare you away! I usually just throw this together with however much I have of the ingredients, so trying to figure out measurements is a challenge. Be sure to suit your own tastes with the dressing using more or less mayonnaise, pickle juice, salt and pepper."
