How to Make Stir Fried Chicken Macaroni Salad

  1. Cook macaroni according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. While macaroni cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces. Stir-fry until cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color), and 2 cloves minced garlic to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup frozen peas and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Cook for 1 minute more.
  6. Add the cooked macaroni to the wok.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to taste.
  8. Pour the dressing over the macaroni and chicken mixture. Toss gently to combine.
  9. Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
