Swaps and substitutions

For a vegetarian version, replace the chicken with chickpeas, roasted mushrooms, or golden tofu for similar substance. To avoid gluten or dairy, use gluten-free pasta and breadcrumbs, plus a plant-based creamy sauce in place of the dairy-based sauce.

What to serve with it

Serve with extra lemon wedges and a crisp white wine or sparkling water to brighten the creamy pasta. A simple tomato salad or roasted broccoli also adds freshness and helps balance the rich, hearty chicken and orzo.
