Ingredients

  • 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 pieces Celery stalks, finely chopped
  • 0.5 medium Red onion, finely chopped
  • 0.25 cup Almonds, sliced
  • 1 cup Red grapes, halved
  • 8 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Start by poaching the chicken breasts. Place them in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked thoroughly.

Step 2

Remove the chicken from the water and let it cool down slightly. Once cool enough, shred it into small pieces using two forks.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with Greek yogurt, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix well to coat the chicken.

Step 4

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 5

Add in the chopped celery, red onion, sliced almonds, and halved grapes. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 6

Wash and dry the lettuce leaves. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken salad mixture onto each lettuce leaf.

Step 7

Roll or fold the leaves to enclose the chicken salad and serve immediately.
