Ingredients
For the Salad:
1.5 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or homemade)
1/4 cup minced red onion
2/3 cup diced dill pickles
For the Dressing:
1 tsp dried chives
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp dried dill
1 tsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp sweet pickle relish
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tbsp mayonnaise (Hellmann’s recommended)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Prep Chicken and Vegetables
In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, minced red onion, and diced dill pickles. Set aside.
Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet relish, dried chives, parsley, dill, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth and well combined.
Combine Everything
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture. Stir until all ingredients are evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Chill and Serve
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to enhance the flavor. Serve cold on sandwiches, in lettuce wraps, with crackers, or over a bed of greens.
Notes
Be sure to drain and pat dry the pickles to avoid watery salad.
Let your chicken cool completely before mixing to prevent separation.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
For added crunch, toss in some chopped celery.
Serving suggestions: buttery croissants, whole-grain toast, lettuce cups, or cucumber boats.
