Chicken yogurt purslane is made by combining cooled, cooked chicken with cleaned purslane and garlic yogurt. Dry the leaves well and fold everything together shortly before serving so the greens stay crisp and the yogurt does not turn watery.
Purslane gives chicken yogurt purslane a mild, fresh tang and a juicy, slightly crunchy texture. Its flavor is less sharp than many salad greens, so it works well with the creamy yogurt and savory chicken.
Yes, leftover cooked chicken works well in chicken yogurt purslane. Remove any skin or bones, shred or chop the meat, and chill it before mixing it with the yogurt and purslane.
Yes, Greek yogurt can be used in chicken yogurt purslane, and its thicker texture helps the dish stay creamy. If it is too dense to coat the ingredients, loosen it with a small spoonful of water before mixing.
Chicken yogurt purslane can be served as either a substantial salad or a light main dish. At a meal, offer it with warm bread, grains, or soup; serve a smaller portion alongside other dishes.
Yes, thawed frozen purslane can be used for chicken yogurt purslane, but it will be softer than fresh leaves. Drain and press out excess water before adding it, or the yogurt dressing may become thin.
Chicken yogurt purslane usually becomes watery because the purslane was not dried well or the ingredients were mixed too far ahead. Dry the leaves thoroughly, use thick yogurt, and combine everything close to serving time.
Yes, you can prepare the chicken and wash and dry the purslane ahead of time. Keep them chilled separately, then mix them with the yogurt shortly before serving for a fresher texture.
Chicken yogurt purslane keeps for about 1–2 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Because it contains cooked chicken and yogurt, refrigerate it promptly and discard it if its smell or texture changes.
Chicken yogurt purslane pairs well with warm flatbread, bulgur, rice, or a simple vegetable soup. Since it is already creamy and contains chicken, a plain grain or crisp side salad balances the meal.

Chicken yogurt purslane is a Turkish-style home dish made by combining cooked chicken with purslane and yogurt. The purslane is usually washed and picked over, then mixed in raw; some versions add garlic, and the exact balance varies from kitchen to kitchen. It is served cold rather than as a hot stew.
Tangy, cool yogurt softens the chicken’s savoury flavour, while purslane adds a fresh, slightly tart note and tender crunch. In Turkey it can appear as a meze, a light lunch, or a side alongside grilled food; it also works well with flatbread. It offers substantial protein, with 12.8 g per 100 g, and purslane contributes omega-3 fats. For a fresher, lighter-tasting bowl, use plenty of purslane and keep the yogurt dressing simple.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
