Begin by preparing the ingredients: Debone the rotisserie chicken and chop the meat into bite-sized pieces. Discard the skin and bones.
Finely chop the celery stalks and red onion. Core and dice the green apple. Halve the grapes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, celery, red onion, apple, and grapes. If using, add the chopped walnuts.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until smooth.
Add the yogurt mixture to the chicken mixture and gently stir until the salad is evenly coated.
Chop the fresh dill and add to the salad along with the salt and black pepper. Mix gently to combine.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.
Serve chilled as a sandwich filling, on a bed of lettuce, or with crackers.
