Ingredients
-
¼ cup white wine vinegar
-
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
-
2 teaspoons garam masala
-
2 teaspoons mustard powder
-
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
-
1 teaspoon ground coriander
-
1 teaspoon white sugar
-
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1 ½ medium red onions, chopped
-
4 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
-
¼ cup butter
-
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut in bite-sized pieces
-
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
-
5 fresh bird’s eye chiles, minced
-
½ cup tomato sauce
-
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
¼ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
Directions
-
Mix vinegar, ginger, garam masala, mustard powder, cayenne pepper, cumin, turmeric, coriander, sugar, and cinnamon together until a paste forms. Set aside.
-
Process red onions and garlic in a food processor until minced.
-
Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion-garlic mixture and saute until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring constantly so the garlic doesn't burn. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Add tomatoes, chile peppers, and tomato sauce. Stir in the reserved spice paste and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, adding pepper flakes, salt, and pepper while cooking. Stir in chicken broth as needed if vindaloo gets too dry.
-
Let cool a bit before serving.
Cook's Note:
If bird's eye peppers aren't available, you can substitute red Thai peppers, or 2 habanero peppers.
