Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free serving, skip the sour cream or replace it with a plain unsweetened plant-based yogurt or cashew cream. If you avoid fish, swap the tilapia for firm tofu or cauliflower steaks and keep the same Cajun-style flavors.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad or simple steamed greens to balance the smoky, spicy fish and hearty beans. Warm cornbread or a crusty roll also works well to soak up the lemony rice and savory juices.
