Biryani de pollo (चिकन बिरयानी बनाने की विधि) 
Chicken Biryani
Biryani is one of the most outstanding culinary creations of Indian cuisine and a jewel among rice dishes worldwide. The colorful, aromatic, and flavorful art of cooking with spices and herbs blends harmoniously in this dish.
In India, although this dish is present throughout the country, it is especially prepared by families of Muslim origin.
The word biryani comes from the Persian “beryā” which means “fried” or “grilled.” Muslim traders spread this dish throughout India, but it is considered of Mughal origin as it was highly appreciated at the tables of Muslim emperors. Mughal Indian cuisine is considered one of the most refined in India and is highly valued by the dominant castes.
There are two methods to cook biryani:
The first (kacchi biryani) mixes raw marinated meat with rice. In the second (pakki biryani), the marinated meat is cooked in its own juice and then mixed with the rice.
I encourage you to try this delicious Indian recipe and share your results and versions with me. I would love to hear all your opinions 🤗

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Start by marinating the meat. Crush the garlic and ginger in a mortar to make a paste, chop the tomato, and slice the onion very finely. In a resealable bag, mix all the marinade ingredients with the chicken, yogurt, and juice of 1/2 lemon and refrigerate for about 4 hours (the longer, the better).
- 2
In a large pan, add a splash of olive oil. Fry the cinnamon stick, cloves, and bay leaves for 2 minutes.
- 3
Add the 1/2 onion and sauté. When it starts to turn golden, add the marinated chicken, Garam Masala, cumin, ground cilantro, and shredded coconut. Cook covered for about 25 to 30 minutes.
- 4
For the rice, rinse it under running water until the water runs clear and soak it for 15 minutes.
- 5
While the meat is cooking, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the bay leaf, and when the water starts to boil, add the rice and salt. The water should be slightly salty to avoid blandness.
Cook until the rice is about 80% done.
- 6
Drain the rice and let it rest in the colander to remove all the water.
- 7
In a small pan, melt the butter and sauté the green onion with the nuts for a minute. Remove and set aside.
I used walnuts and pistachios because that's what I had, although cashews are common.
- 8
In an oven-safe dish, layer the rice and meat, finishing with a layer of rice.
- 9
Heat the coconut milk in a saucepan and dissolve the turmeric powder.
- 10
Decorate the top layer of rice with chopped cilantro, mint, green onion, and the fried nuts, and drizzle everything with the coconut milk.
- 11
Cover the dish with aluminum foil, ensuring there are no gaps to trap steam inside, and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 30 minutes.

Enjoy!

Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani
As weird as the name gets, the recipe gets much easier. #Biryani, being the name of one of most Scrumptious recipes in India, has got 17 different predominant flavors spread throughout the country. So I come up with a version which does not belong to any part of India, but helps you out with a great recipe in less effort.I bring you the Pressure Cooker Chicken Biryani. Don't worry we are in no way going to pressure cook the rice nor the chicken. It's just a replacement of the tedious "Dum" method where we replace it with pressure cooker, an easily available utensil in every house hold.It being an obvious fact that you cannot escape the effort of marination and brown onions while making a biryani, so expecting a recipe with less prep time is absolute disaster.Lets get down to the #favourite recipe without further ado.

Chicken Biryani Chicken Biryani
This dish may take a little while, but the steamed rice comes out ethereal, fragranced with the whole spices. I used Shan brand biryani seasoning per the recommendation of my friend who grew up making this dish. Remember to remove the whole spices before eating. Serve with yogurt tossed with cucumbers, or if you can find it, fermented curried limes.

Mutton Dum Biryani Mutton Dum Biryani
Biryani can be made in many styles. This is one way of cooking Biryani. You can also use chicken or beef. Be careful & patient while you make a Biryani. It is kind of a long process. This is not a healthy recipe. However, you can try to use less oil or ghee during the preparation, also change the quantity of spices according to your taste buds & avoid pineapple if you don't like it. Mix & serve.
