Swaps and substitutions
For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for thick slices of tofu or tempeh and keep the citrus-herb finish. If you avoid dairy or alliums, the dish already works well; just skip extra garlic if needed and use extra lemon and parsley for freshness.
What to serve with it
Serve it with a simple grain like quinoa, brown rice, or crusty bread if you want something more filling. A chilled white wine, sparkling water with lemon, or a light tomato salad also fits the bright, herby flavors.
