Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season them with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cook the chicken breasts in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Allow the cooked chicken breasts to cool, then shred them with a fork or chop them into small bite-sized pieces.
Peel the hard-boiled eggs and roughly chop them into small chunks.
Dice the celery sticks and red onion into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped eggs, diced celery, and red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and egg mixture and mix until all the ingredients are well coated.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle it over the mixed salad. Stir gently to incorporate.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious Keto Chicken and Egg Salad!
