In this article, I list 11 of the most popular side dishes for chicken romano.

In a rush? Here’s the short answer.

The best dishes to serve with chicken romano are lemon pepper pasta, parmesan roasted broccolini, Greek lemon potatoes, and Caesar salad.

Ready? Let’s jump right in.

Lemon pepper pasta

It’d be remiss not to serve pasta with your crisp chicken romano.

Pasta in marinara sauce is a classic accompaniment, but I also love creamy lemon pasta.

Its luscious, citrusy sauce pairs amazingly with your chicken romano.

Sprinkle some freshly cracked black pepper to round out the whole dish.

Anyone’s guaranteed to be impressed with this restaurant-worthy creamy lemon pepper pasta.

Balsamic parmesan roasted broccolini

Chicken romano isn’t the healthiest dish, but a side of broccolini should do the trick in giving it a nutritious boost.

This gorgeous veggie is a good source of fiber, potassium, fiber, and vitamins.

Salt and Lavender’s recipe features roasting it with a dash of parmesan cheese and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, mellowing out its bitter flavors.

Give it a try with Salt and Lavender’s recipe.

Caesar salad

Chicken (in any form) is guaranteed to pair well with classic Caesar salad.

You can easily make this salad with store-bought croutons and Caesar dressing.

But if you have time to spare, make them from scratch.

Cooking Classy will guide you through making these elements for the best Caesar salad you’ll ever have.

Once you taste the homemade version, you’re never going back to = store-bought again.

Greek lemon potatoes

Not in the mood for pasta?

These lemon potatoes are a tremendous starchy base for your chicken romano.

The key to infusing them with tons of flavor?

Roasting them in a garlic and lemon-infused stock.

These Greek lemon potatoes need an hour to roast, but the wait’s worth it once you bite into a crisp, fluffy, and flavorful spud.

Bourbon-glazed carrots

Getting bored of your usual maple or brown sugar glazed carrots?

It’s an easy fix – splash in some bourbon!

Don’t sweat the alcohol. It’ll burn off eventually, leaving your carrots with a complex, delectable flavor.

Butter and Baggage takes it a step further by cooking the carrots in coconut oil, which helps enhance their natural sweetness.

It’ll be hard to resist second servings of these bourbon-glazed carrots.

Roasted asparagus and hollandaise

Asparagus and hollandaise are typically seen alongside eggs benedict for brunch, but they’re also great any time of the day.

The crisp-tender roasted asparagus and buttery hollandaise go superbly with cheesy chicken romano.

And the best part?

It only takes 25 minutes to make this easy roasted asparagus and hollandaise recipe.

Creamy Tuscan mushrooms

Think your chicken romano is a little too plain?

Jazz it up with these creamy mushrooms.

The Tuscan sauce is loaded with sun-dried tomatoes, meaty mushrooms, and leafy spinach, adding color and tons of flavor to your chicken.

Want more umami flavors? Add a tablespoon of white miso paste.

Lemon herb cauliflower rice

If you want to keep your chicken romano low-carb, skip the rice pilaf and make this cauliflower alternative instead.

Don’t be worried about the cauliflower taste – the herbs and lemon zest mask its natural earthy flavors.

This recipe also features squash, but you can easily leave it out to keep it super low carb.

Enjoy your lemon herb cauliflower rice stir fry with a side of chicken romano, guilt-free.

Stuffed tomatoes

Craving pizza, but on a diet?

Try these stuffed tomatoes.

They’re filled with a mixture of breadcrumbs, tomato meat (no waste!), basil, and mozzarella cheese.

This combination will remind you of a classic Margherita pizza, minus the base.

Enjoy these mozzarella and basil stuffed tomatoes with your chicken romano and a glass of your favorite wine (mine’s Prosecco!).

Creamed kale

If you love creamed spinach but want to switch things up, swap it for kale instead.

It’s tougher than spinach, so even after cooking the kale and then folding it into the rich, creamy sauce, it’ll be tender but still have a bite.

Adding bacon gives this dish a smoky flavor that goes so well with the cream sauce.

Serve your chicken romano over a bed of creamed kale for an insta-worthy meal.

Green bean casserole

Make your chicken romano more special with a serving of this green bean casserole.

This casserole is usually served during the holidays, but who says you can’t make it for a regular dinner?
