Begin by placing the chicken breast in a pot with the beef broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Finely dice the onion and add it to the pan, cooking until it becomes translucent.
Thinly slice the gluten-free smoked sausage and ham. Add them to the pan with the onions, sautΓ©ing for another 5 minutes until they just begin to brown.
Chop the pickles into thin slices and add them to the pan along with the tomato paste. Stir well and cook for another 5 minutes.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and set it aside to cool slightly before shredding it into pieces.
Add the contents of the frying pan to the pot with the beef broth along with the shredded chicken.
Slice the lemon into thin rounds and add it to the pot along with the black olives, capers, dill, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves.
Allow the soup to simmer for another 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove the bay leaves before serving.
Serve hot, garnishing with additional dill if desired. Optionally, serve with a dollop of sour cream for extra creaminess.
