Avocado Chicken Salad Recipe

Avocado Chicken Salad Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 large ripe avocados, halved and pitted
• 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
• 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
• 1 small tomato, seeded and diced
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
• Juice of 1 lime
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling
   In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, red onion, celery, and lime juice. Stir well to blend all the ingredients. Season with salt and pepper according to taste.
2. Assemble the Avocado Boats
   Spoon the chicken salad mixture into the avocado halves. Be generous with the filling, allowing it to mound slightly above the edges of the avocados.
3. Add Toppings
   Top each filled avocado half with diced tomatoes and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro or parsley for freshness and color.
4. Serve
   Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving if you prefer a cooler dish.

Tips:

• To keep the avocados from browning, sprinkle the halves with additional lime juice before adding the filling.
• For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce to the chicken salad mixture.
