There was a (probably apocryphal) story years ago when free meals were still served in Coach on domestic flights. The hayseed passenger apparently mis-heard the flight attendant, and replied, "I'll have the possum."

But back to your issue. I would probably say something like, "How is the chicken (or pasta) prepared? I have dietary issues."
Ha!

Yes, maybe I'm just not phrasing it correctly. I don't need a menu or anything fancy, a one word descriptor would be awesome.... curry chicken or pesto pasta.
