Ingredients

  • 2 cups Cooked chicken breast
  • 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 stalks Celery
  • 0.25 cup Red onion
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 8 leaves Lettuce leaves
  • 8 pieces Cherry tomatoes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by finely chopping the cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to the bowl with the chicken.

Step 3

Wash and finely chop the celery stalks, and add them to the mixture for crunch and texture.

Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl for a slight bite of flavor.

Step 5

Chop the fresh dill and add it to the mix for a burst of freshness.

Step 6

Squeeze the juice of one lemon into the chicken mixture to add brightness and balance to the flavors.

Step 7

Season with salt and black pepper to taste and mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 8

Prepare each sandwich by placing a generous scoop of the chicken salad in the center of a large lettuce leaf. Use another leaf to create a sandwich-like wrap.

For added color and flavor, optionally adorn with halved cherry tomatoes atop the chicken salad before wrapping.
