Why it works
- Celiac disease: Chicken, vegetables and plain dairy keep grains and sauces out of the skillet.
- Soy allergy: Olive oil and butter season the chicken and mash without soy ingredients.
- Wheat allergy: No wheat, flour, breading or wheat-based sauce is used.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
