Begin by shredding the rotisserie chicken. Remove the skin and bones, and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces into a large mixing bowl.
Finely dice the celery and red onion. Add them to the bowl with the shredded chicken.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and toss well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice it into thin slices or cubes, as preferred.
Gently fold the avocado into the chicken salad mixture to combine.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.
Serve the chicken salad over a bed of mixed salad greens, dividing evenly among plates.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy low carb rotisserie chicken salad!
