I'm not a big fan of arugula, so I substituted spinach in the salad. It was still delicious.

The balsamic vinaigrette was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a different dressing, such as a lemon vinaigrette.

I substituted chicken breasts for chicken thighs, and it turned out great! The chicken was still moist and flavorful.

The chicken Milanese was delicious, but the arugula salad was a bit too tangy for my taste. I would recommend using a different type of salad dressing.
