Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup red grapes, halved
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted if you like
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Add the shredded chicken, grapes, celery, and pecans. Fold gently for about 30 seconds, just until evenly coated.
  3. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then pile onto croissants or lettuce wraps and serve immediately.

Notes

For the best flavor, chill the salad for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. If you want deeper nuttiness, toast the pecans in a dry pan for a couple of minutes first, but they are just fine raw.
