Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free, skip the sour cream or replace it with a plain unsweetened plant-based alternative. If you need a different fish, use another firm white fish with similar mild flavor; for bean-free diets, swap the kidney beans for extra vegetables.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad, roasted okra, or warm cornbread to round out the smoky spice. A chilled citrus drink or iced tea also helps balance the richness and heat.
