I have read recently that grain free dog food containing peas, potatoes and lentils can cause a heart condition in dogs (DCM). My dog is allergic to chicken and grain. what should I feed him in light of this recent information?

First of all this information regarding peas, potatoes and lentils is not true whatsoever. you can feed him any brand of food that is grain free and chicken free, many companies have at least one product that will fit this description- Orijen for example have a food called "six fish", it's grain free and there is no chicken in it either.
