    Do you have any suggestions of what to serve this with? Could I serve this with breaded chicken?

    great Q: you can actually serve it with just about anything – but my favorite would be chicken – grilled, roasted or breaded — all delish – or a white flaky fish like flounder, trout, snapper but salmon would also be a nice complement.
