Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup finely diced celery
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped red onion
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Shred the chicken into a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt, mustard, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Add the celery and onion to the chicken, then fold in the dressing gently until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes. Give the salad a final stir, then scoop onto lettuce leaves or bread and serve.

Notes

A plain rotisserie chicken makes this recipe come together in minutes. The 15-minute chill is not just for coldness, it gives the yogurt time to carry the lemon, mustard, and dill into every bite.
