Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free, swap the sour cream and cheeses for plant-based versions that melt well, and use a dairy-free crema. For gluten-free, choose certified gluten-free tortillas; for vegetarian, replace the chicken with seasoned mushrooms or beans.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad, charred corn, or black beans to balance the rich, spicy filling. A cold lime soda or light lager fits the Baja flavors and helps cool the heat.
