Why it works

  • Celiac disease: The cutlets are dusted in rice flour and the sauce is built with gluten-free stock and wine.
  • Milk allergy: The glossy pan sauce comes from olive oil, lemon and capers, no butter or cream.

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.
