For a vegetarian version, swap the chicken for seasoned black beans, sautéed mushrooms, or roasted cauliflower. To avoid dairy or wheat, use dairy-free cheese and crema, and wrap the filling in corn tortillas or lettuce leaves.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad, sliced avocado, or a simple tomato and corn side to balance the rich, melty filling. A cool lime drink or extra salsa also works well alongside the smoky, spicy flavor.
