#1 Non-Steak Item
LongHorn Steakhouse's non-steak menu is one of the strongest in casual dining. While the fire-grilled steaks get top billing, dishes like the Parmesan Crusted Chicken — the restaurant's #1 non-steak entrée — and the fresh LongHorn® Salmon deliver the same fire-grill quality in a lighter, more accessible format. The chicken and seafood menu includes eight distinct entrées, plus baby back ribs and cowboy pork chops for guests who want something beyond beef. All entrées include one choice of side.

LongHorn Chicken & Seafood Ordering Tips
Insider Ordering Tips
- Ask for the Parmesan Crusted Chicken to be cooked bone-in style (some locations offer this variation) for extra juiciness
- Request lemon wedges with the salmon — the acid cuts through the char beautifully and is always available
- The Redrock seasoning is LongHorn's most versatile spice blend — ask for it on your side dish too
- Order the half rack ribs as a side addition to any chicken entrée if you want both
Grill Tips for Fish & Chicken
- LongHorn cooks salmon skin-side down first — the skin crisps and protects the flesh, resulting in a self-basting effect
- Chicken is grilled to 165°F internal temperature — ask for it not overcooked if you want maximum moisture
- Pork chops should be ordered medium (145°F) — well-done will dry them out significantly
- Shrimp are best fire-grilled, not steamed — LongHorn's open grill adds smokiness that makes the Redrock seasoning pop
Best Side Pairings
- Parmesan Chicken → Fresh Vegetable Medley or Garlic Mashed Potatoes
- Salmon → Seasoned Rice or Fresh Steamed Broccoli — keeps the meal light and clean
- Redrock Shrimp → Parmesan Fries or Mac & Cheese for a bold contrast
- Baby Back Ribs → Loaded Baked Potato — the ultimate pairing for BBQ lovers
Calorie-Smart Choices
- Lowest calorie full meal: Redrock Shrimp + Fresh Vegetables + House Salad — ~540 cal total
- Salmon is high in omega-3 fatty acids — the best nutritional choice on the entire menu
- Swap the Loaded Baked Potato for Fresh Vegetable Medley to save ~300–400 calories on any entrée
- The Lemon Garlic Chicken at 540 cal is the lightest chicken option — a good choice for calorie tracking
