Start by preparing the chicken if not done already. You can poach, grill, or roast chicken breasts until fully cooked. Allow them to cool, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, finely chopped celery, mayonnaise, sour cream, and fresh parsley.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice for brightness and season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Stir the mixture thoroughly until all the ingredients are well combined and coated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning or mayonnaise for desired texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
