The flavoured rice with meat called Biryani comes in so many varieties and can be cooked in multiple different ways. Some are unique to a particular region like Malabar Chicken biryani, Ambur biryani, Thalapakatti biryani just to name a few.
This Chicken biryani which I have shown in this recipe is one of the easiest to cook with less time involved but at the same time absolutely delicious. The rice and chicken are cooked together at the same time and the flavours will be spread evenly in this method. A mouth watering dish to add to your next meal. Enjoy!
