Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with half the salt and half the pepper. Spread the chicken in one layer in the hot skillet. Let it sit for 2 minutes to brown, then stir occasionally and cook for 4 minutes more, until the pieces are opaque in the center. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and spread it out. Let it cool for 5 minutes until only warm to the touch.
While the chicken cools, whisk the Greek yogurt, light mayonnaise, lemon juice, and the remaining salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the diced apple immediately to prevent browning, followed by the celery, walnuts, cranberries, and raisins.
Add the cooled chicken to the bowl and fold gently to coat the chicken in the dressing. Serve immediately while the apples and celery are crisp.
