Start by shredding or dicing the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, salt, black pepper, and fresh dill if using. Mix until smooth.
Add the shredded chicken, diced celery, halved red grapes, and finely chopped green onions to the mixing bowl. Gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly with the dressing.
Cut each croissant in half lengthwise without completely separating the top from the bottom.
Place a leaf of butter lettuce on the bottom half of each croissant.
Scoop a generous portion of the chicken salad mixture onto the lettuce-lined croissant base.
Close the croissant with the top half and serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining croissants.
Enjoy your Croissant Chicken Salad Sandwich as a fresh and flavorful meal!
