Chicken Vindaloo – Authentic Goan Vindaloo Chicken Recipe

Chicken Vindaloo is one of my favorite Indian Dishes, a popular recipe of Goan cuisine which is gluten-free and dairy-free that can be made in just 40 minutes. Chicken Vindaloo in Portuguese known as ‘wine, vinegar, and garlic’.

Chicken Vindaloo is my go-to dinner and it is one of the best Indian Curry dishes. Earlier I have made Indian Style Chicken Curry but this recipe is something different.

What is Vindaloo Chicken?

Vindaloo Chicken is a popular Indian curry dish mainly found in the region of Goa, the Konkan, and many other parts of India. It is known globally in its British Indian form as a staple of Indian restaurant menus and curry house, often regarded as a spicy dish.

A “vindaloo” term is derived from the Portuguese “meat in garlic wine marinade”, is a standard element of Goan cuisine, a dish usually made with pork meat. The basic structure of the Portuguese dish was the preserved raw ingredients, packed in wooden barrels of pork and garlic, and soaked in red wine.

Whenever I make this Vindaloo chicken my whole family loved it, sometimes my relatives are like – can I have one more chicken piece! Vindaloo Chicken has a spicy, tangy and a bit of sweet taste.

Marination of the chicken is the most important part, more the marination more tender chicken pieces. I always prefer the marinade overnight for better results. The beauty of this dish is the combination of Indian spices.
