I know there are SO many chicken biryani recipes out there and you are probably getting tired of looking for one recipe that you can stick to.
However, look no further you have found THE chicken biryani recipe of the century. The fragrant aromas, the vibrant colours, and the fluffy rice are all bound together by the zing of heat and spices. What more could you ever want?!
Biryani is definitely one of my most requested recipes and a lot of my viewers on YouTube and TikTok have asked for this recipe, so here it is! I love all types of biryanis whether it is lamb biryani or chicken biryani or even vegetable biryani.
Chicken biryani is made by layering chicken, parboiled rice, fried onions, and coriander.
Once layered in a single pot the chicken biryani is cooked by a process called dum, which involves cooking the biryani until completion on low heat.
The lid is kept on the whole time during this process to allow the steam to build up and cook the biryani to perfection.
One of the best things about biryani is that even the leftovers taste great! This makes it especially great for families who don’t have the time (or energy!) to cook every day.
You can simply make a large pot of biryani and reserve it for the next day. The biryani will not lose ANY of its distinct flavour and delicious taste and it will be guaranteed to still be devoured.
Biryani can often be seen as quite complicated and people often shy away from cooking biryani from scratch. However, I guarantee you that with this chicken biryani recipe you will feel like you are able to conquer any Indian recipe.
Chicken biryani is the perfect classic pairing that has invaded culinary culture all around the world.
The boiled rice forms fluffy layers with vibrant colours surrounded by cuts of succulent chicken that are bursting with flavour from the array of spices and herbs. If you ever need some dinner inspiration, then chicken biryani is the choice to make.
It is an aromatic and fragrant dinner dish loaded with spicy chicken, fried onions and flavourful saffron rice that tastes so good that it can still be served up even a few days later.
My chicken biryani recipe will help you to turn a challenging and demanding dish into a meal so simple to make that you will want to make it time and time again.
