Chicken Vindaloo

What is it?

Single-serve frozen meal in an Indian style, this bowl pairs white meat chicken with a tomato-based vindaloo sauce and saffron-seasoned basmati rice. Chile heat comes through alongside vinegar and warm spices, while the rice stays separate and lightly aromatic. H-E-B's frozen Indian lineup also includes milder chicken dishes like butter chicken and korma, so this one sits toward the spicier end. It's meant to be heated from frozen in the microwave or oven, depending on the package instructions. Vinegar gives the sauce a sharper edge than most of the brand's other Indian options, and the saffron rice adds a floral note that pairs with the heat.
