Ingredients

  • 1½ cups Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon salt more to taste
  • 1 lb rotisserie chicken shredded
  • 1 Granny Smith apple diced
  • 2 ribs celery chopped

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and seasonings.
    1½ cups Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, ½ teaspoon salt
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
    1 lb rotisserie chicken, 1 Granny Smith apple, 2 ribs celery
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste if needed.
  • Chill it in the fridge for a couple of hours if you have the time, or serve it immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Full-fat yogurt holds up best for make-ahead.
  • Dice apple last to keep it from browning.
  • Shred chicken warm. It takes on the dressing better.

Storage

  • Fridge: airtight container, 3-5 days.
  • Freezer: not recommended. The dressing separates when thawed.
  • Stir before serving if it's been sitting overnight.
