Instructions
- Grab a large bowl. Mix Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, honey, and kosher salt. Stir until smooth with no lumps.
- Toss in cooked chicken and diced apples. Stir until everything is evenly coated in dressing.
- Taste the salad and adjust salt or lemon juice as needed.
- Lay lettuce leaves flat on a plate. Spoon chicken apple salad onto the center of each leaf.
- Fold the lettuce around the filling like a little taco or wrap.
- Serve immediately or store the salad in the fridge for up to 2 days; wrap just before serving to keep lettuce crisp.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken for convenience and best results. Dice apples ahead and store in lemon water to keep them fresh. Mix dressing the night before to save time. Use fresh butter lettuce leaves for best texture and flavor.
