Begin by cooking the chicken breasts in a frying pan with some oil until fully cooked. Let them cool and then chop into small pieces.
In a small mixing bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, parsley, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and dried oregano.
In a larger bowl, combine the chopped chicken with the almonds, raisins, diced green apple, chopped green onions, diced red onion, and sliced celery stalks.
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and stir until everything is well coated.
Season with salt to taste.
Serve on a bed of lettuce or as a sandwich filling.
