  2. Coat chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder.

  3. Roast until the thickest portion reaches 160-165°F, roughly 18-25 minutes depending on thickness.

  4. Rest completely, then dice or shred.

  5. Dressing: Whisk mayo, Greek yogurt, Dijon, lemon juice/zest, honey, salt and pepper.

  6. Mix-ins: Combine chicken, celery, red onion, dill and nuts.

  7. Fold in dressing. You may not need all of it; add until it's as creamy as you prefer.
