Description
A creamy, protein-rich salad featuring store-bought rotisserie chicken, tender vegetables, and a tangy Greek yogurt-mayo dressing that’s perfect for quick lunches or elegant gatherings.
Ingredients
2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken (skin and bones removed)
1/3 cup finely diced celery
1/3 cup finely diced red onion
1/2 cup finely chopped baby spinach
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
Instructions
Shred the rotisserie chicken and set aside.
Finely dice the celery and red onion; chop the baby spinach.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped chicken, celery, red onion, and spinach.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture and gently toss to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Chill for 5–10 minutes before serving for optimal flavor.
Notes
For a milder onion flavor, soak the diced red onion in ice water for 5 minutes, then drain thoroughly.
Substitute curly kale or arugula for the baby spinach if preferred.
Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
