Classic borscht with beetroot and chicken on tomato juice

Prepare an appetizing and satisfying dish for lunch! Delicious! Borscht is a familiar dish to everyone, but, unfortunately, not everyone knows how to cook it. I offer my recipe, according to which I have been cooking borscht for a couple of years (I admit, I was afraid to cook this dish myself before marriage, but then I had to learn). Everything is actually not as difficult as it seems)
