Ingredients
3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded or diced
2/3 cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/3 cup green onion, thinly sliced
3/4 cup seedless cucumber, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp dried dill
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken, cubed cucumber, celery, and green onion.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, dried dill, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture.
Toss everything together gently until well-coated.
Stir in the fresh chopped parsley and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If using fresh dill, use 1 tablespoon instead of the 1 teaspoon of dried dill for a bolder flavor. You can serve this over a bed of mixed greens, inside a whole-wheat wrap, or with pita crackers.
