A refreshing and flavorful Mediterranean-inspired chicken salad perfect for any occasion.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced cucumber, crumbled feta cheese, and sliced black olives.
Ensure the chicken is cooled before mixing to maintain the salad's freshness.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, yogurt, oregano, minced garlic, parsley, and lemon juice until smooth.
For a tangier dressing, add a bit more lemon juice.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the large mixing bowl.
Add the dressing gradually to achieve your desired level of creaminess.
Toss the salad gently to coat all ingredients evenly with the dressing.
Use a gentle tossing motion to avoid breaking the feta cheese.
Cover the bowl and chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together for a more cohesive taste.
Serve the salad on a platter or individual plates, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Enjoy!
Pair with warm pita bread for a complete meal.
