Yes, a meat mallet works great for pounding chicken fillets. Just ensure you cover the chicken with cling film to prevent tearing, similar to using a rolling pin.
For a dairy-free option, you can use olive oil or a dairy-free butter alternative. Avoid margarine with high water content, as it may splatter when frying.
This recipe is naturally gluten-free as written. Just double-check any pre-mixed seasonings for hidden gluten, or use certified gluten-free spices.

Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan to maintain texture.
