Ingredients
Scale:
3 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup Celery, finely chopped
1 cup Red grapes, halved
1/2 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
1/4 cup Green onions, sliced
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped celery, halved grapes, chopped nuts, and sliced green onions.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the creamy dressing over the chicken mixture and gently fold everything together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the grapes intact.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together before serving.
Serve the Creamy Southern Chicken Salad on a bed of greens, in a sandwich, or with crackers for a delightful lunch or picnic treat.
