In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, pineapple, red bell pepper, celery, and red onion. Just toss those ingredients in like you’re throwing a tropical party!
In a separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, honey, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Whisk until it’s smooth, and you can practically smell the sunshine.
Pour the dressing over your chicken and veggie mixture, and stir until everything is coated in that creamy goodness. Remember, the more you mix, the more flavors mingle—like a summer get-together!
Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving. If you can resist, letting it sit for a couple of hours is even better! It’s like letting the flavors take a well-deserved vacation.
Serve chilled with a garnish of fresh cilantro or green onions, and enjoy every bite of your Hawaiian paradise!
