Description
A delicious and refreshing rotisserie chicken salad with a creamy yogurt dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt (non-fat)
- 1 cup fresh parsley
- ½ cup fresh dill, loosely packed
- ½ cup fresh mint
- 1 cup baby spinach
- ⅓ cup lemon juice (about 1½ large lemons)
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- ½ tsp salt, more to taste
- black pepper (to taste)
- 1–2 Tbsp water (optional to thin it out)
- Optional: green onion, red onion, or chopped cucumber
Instructions
- Shred your rotisserie chicken. I do this by pulsing it a few times in the food processor, but you can use 2 forks instead depending on how finely you prefer your chicken in a chicken salad.
- In a food processor or high-speed blender, add your dressing ingredients and blend until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Add a bit of water as needed to thin it out.
- Add the chicken to a large bowl and pour the dressing on top. Give it a good mix to combine the dressing, making sure the chicken is coated.
- Optional: if you want, add in green onions, red onion, cucumber, or mashed white beans.
Notes
- This salad is perfect for meal prep and can be stored in the fridge for a few days.
- Serve it over greens or in a wrap for a delicious lunch.
