Instructions

Cooking Chicken

Place the chicken, broth (or water), and 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring it all to a boil, then lower the heat to medium. Cover and simmer until the chicken is fully cooked - about 10 minutes. Once done, move the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Making the Dressing

While the chicken is cooling, mix together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, parsley, dill, mustard, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Combining Ingredients

Cut the rested chicken into 1/4-inch cubes, then add it to the bowl with the yogurt mixture. Toss to coat evenly. Add the celery, red onion, pickles, black pepper, and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Stir everything together until well mixed.
