Swaps and substitutions

For dairy-free needs, swap the sour cream-style topping for a plain unsweetened plant-based alternative or skip it and add extra lemon for brightness. If avoiding shellfish, use a different protein such as chicken or tofu and keep the same seasoning profile.

What to serve with it

Serve with a simple green salad or steamed greens to balance the richness, and add warm bread for scooping up the rice and sauce. A crisp lager, iced tea, or sparkling water with citrus also fits the bright Cajun flavors.
