Begin by removing the skin from the rotisserie chicken and discarding it. Carefully pull the meat from the bones and chop or shred it into bite-sized pieces. You should end up with about 3 to 4 cups of shredded chicken.
Wash and finely chop the celery and add it to a large mixing bowl.
Finely dice half of a medium red onion and the half of a large red bell pepper, adding them to the mixing bowl with the celery.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and add 2 tablespoons to the vegetable mixture.
In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Stir until you have a smooth, creamy dressing.
Add the shredded chicken to the mixing bowl with the vegetables.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture, using a spatula or spoon to combine everything evenly.
Season the chicken salad with salt and black pepper, tasting and adjusting as needed.
Cover and refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the sugar-free rotisserie chicken salad on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich, or enjoy it on its own.
