Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded chicken I used rotisserie chicken
- ¼ cup buffalo sauce
- ¼ cup red onion diced
- 2 stalks celery diced
- 2 Tablespoons full fat greek yogurt
- 2 Tablespoons avocado oil mayo
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Green onions for garnish, optional
- Blue cheese crumbles for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Add chicken, buffalo sauce, red onion, celery, greek yogurt, mayo, salt and pepper into a large bowl. Toss to combine. Taste and add more yogurt/mayo, salt and pepper, if needed.
- Enjoy right away or chill before serving. Serve with crackers for a snack or appetizer, on bread or a wrap for a sandwich or over a bed of greens.
Notes
- Shredded chicken: I love using rotisserie chicken for this recipe because it’s quick and easy, but you can also use my foolproof method for slow cooker shredded chicken or instant pot shredded chicken.
- Make it dairy-free: Use all mayo instead of half greek yogurt or you can swap the yogurt with a dairy-free yogurt option.
