This Cranberry Chicken Salad is such a good mix of creamy, crunchy, sweet, and savory.
Juicy chicken, tart dried cranberries, crisp celery, and buttery pecans are folded into a creamy Greek yogurt dressing with Dijon, lemon, and a touch of honey. It comes together quickly and makes an easy lunch that still feels special.
Ingredients:
6 oz cooked chicken breast, chopped
2 tbsp dried cranberries
½ cup finely diced celery
2 tbsp chopped pecans
For the creamy dressing:
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
1½ tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp honey
1 tbsp water
Black pepper to taste
A pinch of salt
Chop the cooked chicken into bite sized pieces and add it to a bowl with the cranberries, celery, and pecans. Mix the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon, lemon juice, honey, water, black pepper, and salt until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and gently fold everything together, keeping the chicken chunky so you get plenty of texture in every bite. Chill for a few minutes before serving.
Would you add chopped apple to this one?
