Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dressing:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and honey. Mix until smooth.
2. Add the Chicken:
   • Add the cooked chicken to the bowl with the dressing. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.

4. Season and Garnish:
   • Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. Add the chopped parsley and mix gently.
5. Chill:
   • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Serve:
   • Serve the chicken salad on a bed of lettuce leaves or as a filling for croissants or whole-grain bread. You can also serve it with crackers or over a green salad.

Tips:

• For a lighter version, you can use all Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
• Adjust the amount of honey to taste, depending on your sweetness preference.
• Feel free to add or substitute other ingredients like apples, almonds, or avocado for variation.
