Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free, swap the creamy elements for a plain unsweetened plant-based alternative and use a dairy-free pesto. If you avoid chicken, the same flavors work well with firm tofu or seared mushrooms, keeping the rest of the plate the same.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad or steamed green beans to keep the plate light and balanced. A lemony cucumber salad or a few toasted nuts on the side can add freshness and crunch without overpowering the pesto.
