Chicken Vindaloo Recipe Process

Do not substitute chicken breasts. Serve with rice.

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees.

Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking.

Add half of chicken and brown well, about 8 minutes; transfer to bowl.

Repeat with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining chicken.

Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to now-empty pot and place over medium heat until shimmering.

Add onions and ¼ teaspoon salt and cook until softened, 5 to 7 minutes.

Stir in garlic, paprika, cumin, cardamom, cayenne, and cloves and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute.

Gradually whisk in broth, scraping up any browned bits and smoothing out any lumps.

Stir in tomatoes with their juice, vinegar, mustard seeds, bay leaves, sugar, and browned chicken with any accumulated juice.

Bring to simmer. Cover pot, place in oven, and cook until chicken is tender, about 1 hour.

Remove stew from oven and remove bay leaves.

Stir in cilantro, season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
