Join me on a culinary journey as we explore the art of making Chicken Biryani, unraveling its secrets, and savoring every delicious bite.

Instructions:

Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for about 30 minutes.

Marinate the chicken pieces in yogurt, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green chilies, ground spices (turmeric, cumin, coriander, chili powder), chopped cilantro, chopped mint leaves, and salt. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably longer in the refrigerator.

In a large pot, heat some ghee or vegetable oil. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove half of the onions and set aside for garnishing.

Add whole spices (bay leaves, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves) to the remaining onions in the pot. Stir for a minute until fragrant.

Add the marinated chicken along with chopped tomatoes to the pot. Cook until the chicken is partially cooked and the tomatoes have softened.

Drain the soaked rice and add it to the pot. Spread the rice evenly over the chicken mixture.

Pour enough water into the pot so that it covers the rice by about an inch. You can also add a few saffron strands soaked in warm milk at this stage for added flavor and color.

Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and cook on low heat until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

Once the biryani is cooked, fluff the rice gently with a fork. Garnish with the reserved crispy onions and some chopped cilantro and mint leaves.

Serve the Chicken Biryani hot with raita (yogurt sauce) and your favorite pickle or chutney.

Enjoy your homemade Chicken Biryani!
