Chicken Biryani
In a traditional chicken biryani, richly spiced and perfectly fluffy basmati rice is lavished with butter and studded with dried fruit. The saffron-and-spice-infused rice is layered with sauced chicken, and the two are cooked together before being topped with fried onions and chopped herbs. However, it takes time to develop deep flavor by steeping whole spices and cooking the components in stages. This version, uses chunks of boneless chicken thighs and skipped the lengthy marinating. The onion is sautéed instead of deep-frying and then the chicken is browned in the same skillet. This dish is garnished with fried onion, fresh mint and cilantro, and an herby yogurt sauce.
