Salad with chicken in wine sauce - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute the red wine in the sauce with something non-alcoholic?

Yes, you can use grape juice mixed with a teaspoon of vinegar or balsamic glaze for a similar depth of flavor without alcohol.

How long can I store this salad in the fridge?

Assembled salad keeps best for 1-2 days if stored airtight. For longer freshness, store dressing separately and add just before serving.

What's a good vegetarian alternative to the chicken?

Try grilled portobello mushrooms or marinated tofu. Both absorb flavors well and provide a satisfying texture replacement.

Can I make this salad ahead for meal prep?

Prep components separately: store cooked chicken, chopped veggies, and dressing in individual containers. Assemble portions when ready to eat.

Is there a low-carb version of this recipe?

Omit the quail eggs and reduce tomatoes for lower carbs. Increase chicken and arugula portions to bulk up the meal.

What other greens work besides arugula?

Spinach, mixed baby greens, or butter lettuce all pair well. Avoid delicate herbs as they'll wilt faster with the warm dressing.

Can I freeze leftovers of this salad?

Freezing isn't recommended as greens become mushy. Only freeze unassembled cooked chicken (without sauce) for up to 1 month.

What sides would complement this salad?

Crusty bread soaks up extra sauce nicely, or serve with roasted baby potatoes for a heartier meal.

How can I make the wine sauce thicker?

Simmer longer to reduce, or mix 1 tsp cornstarch with cold water before adding to the simmering sauce for quick thickening.
