🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For a nut-free version, leave out the almond garnish and use toasted seeds or extra herbs for crunch instead. To avoid chicken, swap in firm tofu or chickpeas and keep the same warm spice-and-fruit flavor profile.
What to serve with it
Serve with a simple cucumber and tomato salad or warm flatbread to round out the sweet-spiced sauce and add freshness. A tangy yogurt dip or extra lemon wedges also works well if you want more contrast on the plate.
