Nik’s Berry Chicken Salad

Instructions

  1. In a cup, combine Greek yogurt, mayo and dressing and stir until it resembles yogurt. (It will first be sort of clumpy but if you stir it for a minute or two it’ll smooth out.)
  2. Put your shredded chicken in a bowl and add spices to the chicken. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Add yogurt/mayo mixture (Note: if you don’t want to use mayo, try a drizzle of olive oil but you do need a little bit of fat. Greek yogurt alone doesn’t hold well in chicken salads without giving off a “dry” aftertaste). Mix thoroughly.
  4. Lastly add your berries and nuts, if using them.
  5. This was a delightful surprise. Interestingly the black pepper is the star of this thing. The pepper against the berries and the savory chicken is quite nice! I ate this straight out of the bowl for lunch. They would also be good on a plain rice cake or with some whole wheat crackers if that’s your thing.
