Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free, swap the sour cream in the crema for a plain unsweetened plant-based yogurt or dairy-free sour cream. For gluten-free, use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas and check that the spice blend and stock are gluten-free.

What to serve with it

Serve with black beans, Mexican rice, or a simple corn and avocado salad to round out the tacos. A crisp green salad or chilled slaw also balances the smoky, spicy filling well.
