🥛Milk🦐ShellfishSwaps and substitutions
For a dairy-free version, use unsweetened plant milk and a melty vegan cheese in place of the milk and cheddar. For shellfish-free needs, swap the shrimp for sautéed mushrooms, tofu, or white beans to keep the dish hearty.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad or simple sliced cucumbers to keep the plate fresh and light. A lemon wedge, hot sauce, or a chilled sparkling drink also pairs well with the savory, spicy flavors.
