In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, finely diced celery, and finely diced red onion. Set aside.

In a separate medium-sized bowl, prepare the lemon basil dressing. Add the mayonnaise, plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and chopped fresh basil.

Season the dressing with salt and black pepper. Stir all the dressing ingredients thoroughly until well combined and creamy.

Pour the prepared lemon basil dressing over the chicken, celery, and red onion mixture in the large bowl.

Stir all ingredients together until the shredded chicken, celery, and red onion are evenly coated with the creamy dressing.

Serve the Lemon Basil Chicken Salad immediately, or refrigerate for later. It can be enjoyed with chips or crackers, as a wrap, or as a delicious chicken salad sandwich. For a sandwich, spread mayonnaise on toast, add a lettuce leaf, a generous portion of chicken salad, two slices of tomato, and top with another piece of toast. Cut diagonally for serving.
