Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups cooked chicken diced or shredded
  • ¾ cups Greek yogurt or mayo
  • 2 tbsp chopped tarragon fresh
  • 1 celery stalk diced
  • ½ shallot minced
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Add the cooked chicken, Greek yogurt (or mayo), tarragon, celery, shallot, dijon mustard, lemon juice, kosher salt, and pepper to a bowl.
  • Mix everything together well. Cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to let the flavors develop. This really is best the next day, but if you're not one to prepare in advance it'll be good whenever you want to eat it!
  • Serve on crackers, toasted bread, or in lettuce wraps. Enjoy!

Notes

If you want to keep things light, use plain Greek Yogurt. If you’d like this to taste more like the “classic” chicken salad, use mayo.
See the “variations” section of this post for flavor suggestions.
LEFTOVERS: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
