A delightful twist on the classic chicken salad, featuring cranberries and a tangy dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, dried cranberries, chopped celery, diced red onion, diced apple, and chopped walnuts.
Ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed for a consistent flavor in every bite.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and mix well to coat everything evenly.
Use a folding motion to mix the salad to avoid crushing the ingredients.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling the salad enhances the flavor and makes it more refreshing.
Serve the salad on a bed of greens, in a sandwich, or with crackers.
Garnish with additional chopped walnuts or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for presentation.
