Swaps and substitutions

For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for mushrooms, chickpeas, or roasted cauliflower to keep the dish hearty. For dairy-free or lactose-free needs, use plant-based cream and cheddar-style shreds, and skip the crispy onion topping if it contains wheat.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad or lemony green beans to balance the rich, creamy rice. Warm crusty bread also fits well if you want something extra for soaking up the sauce.
