🥛Milk🦐ShellfishSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, swap the sour cream-style sauce for a plain unsweetened plant-based alternative. To avoid shellfish, replace the shrimp with chickpeas alone, or use diced tofu or chicken if those fit your diet.
What to serve with it
Serve with warm flatbread, a crisp cucumber salad, or extra lemon wedges to brighten the spiced rice and shrimp. A simple herb salad or roasted vegetables also help round out the bowl without overpowering the garlicky sauce.
