This is one biryani which i made yesterday and it turned out so yummy, which i cannot wait to share with you all. Here i am with the post. I am calling this white chicken biryani because, there is no much spice going on this and the rice is white. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
How to Make White Chicken Biryani
- First marinate the chicken in the ingredients listed above for 1 hour.
- Wash and soak basmati rice for 1 hour. Bring lots of water to a good boil, add in salt and the spices.
- Add in the drained rice and cook for 5 to 7 mins till the rice is 70 percent cooked, when you taste it, it should have a bite to it. Now drain this and set aside.
- Now take a pot in which you are going to cook biryani. Heat oil and fry the onions till golden. Drain more than half of the onions and set aside.
- In the remaining oil add the marinated chicken.
- Spoon the ¾ th of the rice in, spread tomatoes, half coriander and mint leaves then half of the fried onions.
- Now spoon the rest of the rice in and spread coriander, mint and fried onions.
- Now cover this with foil, and a lid. Put this on a very low heat and cook for 30 to 35 mins. You can put this over a tawa and cook on a very low heat.
- Once it is done, mix it well and serve hot.
