For Chicken Marinade:
500g chicken (cut into pieces)
1 cup yogurt
2-3 tbspPride of India Biryani Masala Seasoning
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp Pride of India's ginger-garlic seasoning (or paste)
Himalayan pink Salt, to taste
For Biryani Rice & Layering:
4 cups water
1 cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
2-3 green cardamom pods
2 tbsp oil or ghee
4 onions, sliced
A handful of chopped fresh coriander leaves
A handful of fresh mint leaves
A pinch of saffron (optional), soaked in 2 tbsp warm milk
Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken, yogurt, Biryani Masala, lemon juice, ginger-garlic seasoning, and salt. Mix well and let marinate for at least 1 hours, or ideally overnight in the fridge.
Prepare Rice: Wash and soak Basmati rice for 30 minutes, then drain. In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil with whole spices (cinnamon, bay leaf, cardamom) and salt. Add the drained rice and cook until 60-70% done (it should still be slightly firm). Drain immediately and set aside.
Saute Onions: Heat oil or ghee in a deep pot. Saute the onions until golden brown and crispy. Remove half for garnishing (optional).
Cook Chicken: Add the marinated chicken to the same pot and cook on medium heat until tender and the spices thicken, about 20-30 mins.
Layer & Dum Cooking Method:
Spread half of the partially cooked rice over the chicken.
Sprinkle some chopped mint and coriander.
Add the remaining chicken.Top with the rest of the rice, herbs, and saffron milk (if using).
Cover the pot tightly (like seal with dough/foil). Cook on very low heat for 20-30 minutes.
Rest & Serve: Let the Biryani rest for 10 minutes after turning off the heat. Gently fluff before serving.

Fusion Rice Bowls: Create modern, customizable grain and rice bowls where our Biryani spiced rice forms the base. Top it with your choice of proteins like lentils, roasted vegetables, and fresh accompaniments for a complete and flavorful meal.
Unique Stuffing: Get creative by using spiced rice as a flavorful stuffing for vegetarian wraps, savory pastries, or other innovative fillings.
