Ingredients
- Chicken Breast: The dish typically features a boneless, skinless chicken breast, which is seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices, and then grilled or sautéed to a tender, juicy finish. It may be topped with a flavorful sauce or glaze to complement the shrimp and chicken.
- Shrimp: The shrimp used in this dish are usually grilled, sautéed, or pan-seared. They are often seasoned with a light blend of spices, including garlic and lemon, and sometimes paired with a butter sauce for added richness.
- Lemon Butter Sauce (optional): The shrimp and chicken are often served with a lemon butter sauce that adds a layer of richness to the dish. The sauce is typically made with butter, lemon juice, garlic, and sometimes herbs like parsley, creating a buttery, slightly tangy accompaniment for both proteins.
- Seasonings: Both the chicken and shrimp are usually seasoned with salt, pepper, and various herbs or spices. Depending on the preparation, additional seasonings like paprika or garlic powder may be used to enhance the flavors.

Recommendations
- For a lighter option: To make this dish lighter, you can request that the chicken and shrimp be grilled with minimal butter or ask for the lemon butter sauce on the side. Pairing the dish with a house salad or steamed vegetables instead of heavier sides will help keep the meal light and refreshing.
- For a richer, indulgent meal: For a more indulgent experience, enjoy the lemon butter sauce and pair the dish with sides like garlic mashed potatoes, crispy Brussels sprouts, or seasoned rice. These sides will complement the rich flavors of the chicken and shrimp.
- Wine Pairing: A Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with the shrimp and chicken, as its smooth, buttery character complements the richness of the lemon butter sauce. Alternatively, a Pinot Grigio offers a crisp and refreshing contrast that works well with the lighter flavors of the shrimp. A Sauvignon Blanc is another good option if you prefer something with more acidity to balance the richness.
- For a gluten-free option: Since the chicken and shrimp are naturally gluten-free, this dish is a good option for those avoiding gluten. Be sure to ask for the sauce to be served on the side or to confirm that it is gluten-free. Many restaurants offer gluten-free alternatives for sauces, so be sure to inquire.
- For heart-healthy benefits: If you’re seeking a heart-healthier option, request the chicken and shrimp to be grilled without butter and served with a lighter sauce, such as garlic herb sauce or lemon vinaigrette. Pairing with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad will further reduce the fat content of the meal.
