STEP BY STEP

Let’s make it.

Use cooked chicken that is cold throughout. Dice it finely enough to sit neatly on a small leaf.
Mix mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice and pepper in a bowl.
Fold in chicken, celery, walnuts and parsley. Chop any loose lettuce trimmings into the salad.
Spoon onto 8 small lettuce leaves and divide into 4 servings. Chill until served.

Kitchen notes

The chicken amount is cooked weight. Use plain mayonnaise; flavored versions can contain extra sugar.
Keep refrigerated at 40°F (4°C) or below until serving. Refrigerate perishables within 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F (32°C). Serve chilled; do not leave a buffet platter out for longer.
