For perfectly fine chicken, add your cooked chicken breasts to a food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds until shredded to your liking. If you prefer a more rustic texture or don't have a food processor handy, simply use two forks to shred the chicken by hand.

Transfer your shredded chicken to a large mixing bowl. Add all remaining ingredients - the diced pickles, pickle brine, sweet relish, diced celery, diced red onion, Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir everything together until well combined and evenly distributed.
