1-Start with preparing your chicken: Use 2 cups of cooked, chopped or shredded chicken, which you can get from leftovers or a rotisserie for ease. While the chicken cools, dice the celery and slice the green onion to add that fresh crunch.

2-Next, in a medium bowl, mix the 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. If you like, toss in the optional dill for extra flavor. This step creates a creamy dressing that ties everything together.

3-Now, add the chicken, celery, and green onion to the bowl. Gently stir to coat all ingredients evenly, being careful not to mash the chicken. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, perhaps adding more salt or a squeeze of lemon for brightness.

4-Once mixed, let the salad chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let flavors blend. Serve it as a sandwich filling, over salad greens, or in a wrap for a versatile meal.
