🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for extra chickpeas, white beans, or seasoned tofu. To avoid dairy or wheat, leave off the Parmesan and use gluten-free crumbs or nuts instead of panko, and choose a gluten-free grain if needed.
What to serve with it
Serve it with crusty bread or garlic toast to make the salad feel more substantial, and a simple fruit dessert keeps the meal fresh. For a fuller spread, add roasted vegetables or a light soup on the side.
