Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast (shredded or cubed)
- 0.5 cups Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups Greek yogurt (plain)
- 0.5 cups Celery (diced)
- 0.75 cups Red grapes (halved)
- 0.25 cups Sliced almonds (toasted)
- 2 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 6 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Add the shredded or cubed chicken breast, diced celery, halved red grapes, toasted sliced almonds, thinly sliced green onions, and chopped parsley to the bowl.
Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is well-coated in the dressing.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired.
Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. (This step is optional but recommended.)
Serve the chicken salad on its own, wrapped in romaine lettuce leaves, on top of a bed of greens, or as a sandwich filling.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
