Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken such as rotisserie
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cucumber grated, and liquid squeezed out with a clean towel
  • 1/4 cup fresh chopped herbs parsley, mint, chives, scallions, and/or dill
  • 1 small clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or red wine vinegar
  • kosher salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  2. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
  3. Serve chicken salad in pita bread, in lettuce wraps, or on crackers/toast.

Notes

  • Make ahead/storage: Make this in bulk and take it for lunch all week- stays good in the fridge for 3-5 days! Give it a stir to mix it up a bit before servings, since the yogurt will separate a bit.
  • For a dairy-free version, use mayo instead of yogurt, or a dairy free yogurt substitute.
  • To save time, use leftover tzatziki sauce or store-bought tzatiziki, by mixing about a cup of it with the chicken and seasoning to taste.
