1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8-10 butter lettuce cups
blue cheese dressing, extra hot sauce, optional toppings

In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, onion, celery, carrots, Greek yogurt, mayo, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spoon into lettuce cups. If desired, top with an extra drizzle of hot sauce and blue cheese dressing. Enjoy!
