  • 1 large English cucumber, portioned as: ½ cup grated, 1 ½ cups finely diced

  • ¾ cup plain whole-milk Greek yogurt

  • 6 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh dill, plus extra for garnish

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

  • 1 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • ¾ cup finely diced red onion

Directions

  1. Pre-measure and gather all ingredients to keep assembly quick and organized.

  2. Lay the ½ cup of grated cucumber between two layers of paper towel, then gently squeeze to remove excess moisture. Transfer the drained cucumber to a large mixing bowl.

  3. Add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, mayonnaise, olive oil, grated garlic, pepper, and salt to the bowl with the cucumber. Stir thoroughly until all components are fully combined into a smooth, even dressing.

  4. Gently fold in the shredded chicken, crumbled feta, diced red onion, and 1 ½ cups of diced cucumber, mixing until every ingredient is evenly coated in the creamy dressing. Garnish with extra fresh dill before serving.
