Stated plan

Promote the g2 pawn to queen with check, delivering an unstoppable mate since the new queen is protected by the queen on d4.

Reasoning

Black's pawn on g2 can promote with check. After g2g1=Q+, the new queen attacks the king on h2 diagonally, and this queen is protected by the black queen on d4 (which covers g1 via the d4-e3-f2-g1 diagonal), so the king cannot capture it. The king also has no escape: g3 and h1 are covered by the new queen, and h3 is occupied by White's own pawn. No white piece can block or capture the checking queen. This is checkmate.
