🥬 These BLTA Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps offer a refreshing, light meal packed with crisp veggies and tender chicken.
🥓 Featuring crispy bacon and creamy avocado, this recipe balances flavor and nutrition perfectly for a satisfying lunch or dinner.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

– 1/2 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt

– 1/4 cup mayonnaise (full fat for richer flavor)

– 2 teaspoons lemon juice

– 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions

– 1 tablespoon minced parsley

– 3 cups diced cooked and chilled chicken breast

– 6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped

– 1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes, halved

– 1/2 cup celery, chopped

– 1 medium avocado (fairly firm but ripe), diced

– Romaine lettuce leaves for serving

Instructions

1-First, prepare all your ingredients: Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly, then dice the grape tomatoes, avocado, and celery. Shred or dice the cooked chicken breast to make it easy to mix.

2-Second, cook the bacon until it’s crispy; this can be done in a skillet or oven for about 5-10 minutes. Once done, chop it into small pieces and set it aside to cool.

3-Third, in a medium mixing bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, green onions, and parsley. Season this dressing with salt and pepper to your taste for a balanced flavor.

4-Fourth, in a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, chopped bacon, halved grape tomatoes, and chopped celery. For a nicer look, reserve some ingredients to sprinkle on top later.

5-Fifth, add the dressing to the large bowl and gently toss everything until the ingredients are evenly coated. Take care not to mash the avocado if you’re adding it now.

6-Sixth, gently fold in the diced avocado to keep its creamy texture intact. This step adds richness without overpowering the other flavors.

7-Final step: Spoon the mixture onto the romaine lettuce leaves to form wraps. Serve right away or chill for 15 minutes to let the flavors blend. If you’re packing for a meal, wrap in parchment paper.
