Dice the cooked chicken breast into small cubes and place it in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the celery into fine pieces and halve the grapes, then add them to the bowl with the chicken.
In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together until smooth to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture. Add the chopped green onions and pecans, gently folding everything together until well combined.
Prepare the romaine lettuce leaves by rinsing them under cold water and patting them dry with a clean towel.
Take a large spoonful of the chicken salad and place it into the center of each lettuce leaf.
Arrange the lettuce wraps on a platter. Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing and flavorful dish!
