Ow, admittedly I hadn’t considered allergies. In that case I suspect you’d find something like pasta with bechamel (100 grams of chicken stir fried, 100mL of bechamel sauce*, served with pasta) to be similarly affordable. Basic fried rice with stir fried chicken is also dirt cheap. Really chicken in general is the load-bearing pillar of non-vegetarian cheap cooking, though since you say “our house” I suspect you already know that.
*I like mine on the juicier side, adjust for taste.
