About This Dish
Chicken Vindaloo is the fiery Goan curry with Portuguese roots – chili, vinegar, and garlic in bold measures. This isn't for the faint of heart.
Chicken simmers in a paste of Kashmiri dried chilies, vinegar, garlic, cinnamon, and cloves. The tangy-spicy profile comes from the interplay of vinegar with dried red chilies, balanced by potatoes.
