Finely chop the cooked chicken breast into small cubes or shred it using two forks.
Dice the celery stalks into small, crisp pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy dressing.
Add the chopped chicken and celery to the dressing. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
If desired, stir in chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and freshness.
Butter one side of each multi-grain bread slice.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place a buttered slice of bread in the skillet, buttered side down.
Spread a generous portion of the creamy chicken-celery mixture on the bread. Add a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on top for added texture and freshness.
Cover with another slice of bread, buttered side up, to form a sandwich.
Cook the sandwich in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make a total of four sandwiches.
Slice each sandwich diagonally and serve warm with your choice of side dish or soup.
