Ingredients
2 C shredded chicken 1/2 C sliced scallions1/2 C chopped cilantro1/2 red pepper, choppeddressing1 t cumin1 t coriander1/2 T EVOO2 T fresh grated gingerzest and juice (1-2 T) of one lemon1.5 T mayonnaise (I use regular, don't like light)1.5 T nonfat Greek yogurt
Directions
This was originally a recipe for turkey leftovers but I bake 4 chicken thighs to make 2 cups of shredded chicken. I also use dried spices though the original recipes call for you to toast and grind cumin and coriander seeds.

Mince ginger and jalapeno and saute in 1-2 t. olive oil for 3-4 minutes. Set aside and let cool. Slice green onions, chop cilantro, dice red pepper and add to bowl. Zest and squeeze 1-2 T lemon. Add spices, cooled jalapano-ginger mixture, shredded chicken, mayo and yogurt and mix well.Optional: top each serving with handful of chopped cashews.
