4. Adding the Chicken: Incorporate the marinated chicken into the skillet, ensuring each piece is well coated with the spice mixture.
5. Incorporating Tomatoes and Broth: Add diced tomatoes and chicken broth, bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes until the chicken is tender.
6. Final Seasoning: Taste and adjust the salt and heat level. The vindaloo should be a harmonious blend of spicy, slightly tangy, and rich flavors.
7. Serving: Serve the chicken vindaloo hot alongside cooked rice, garnishing with fresh cilantro if desired.
