Step 1
In a large bowl, combine shredded or diced cooked chicken, finely diced celery, red onion, and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 2
Prepare the tahini dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, water, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy. Add a little more water if you prefer a thinner consistency.
Step 3
Pour the tahini dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to ensure all ingredients are well coated.
Step 4
Taste the chicken salad and adjust seasoning as needed (more salt, pepper, or lemon juice).
Step 5
Serve immediately in lettuce cups, pita bread, or on a bed of mixed greens. Can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
