Swaps and substitutions

For a dairy-free version, swap the crema and cheese for plant-based alternatives, or finish with avocado for creaminess. To keep it vegetarian, replace the chicken with extra beans, roasted vegetables, or seasoned tofu while keeping the same bold seasoning profile.

What to serve with it

Serve it with a crisp green salad, sliced avocado, or quick pickled onions to add freshness and balance the rich, spicy flavors. Warm tortillas or a simple corn side also make it feel more complete and help soak up the sauce.
