my husband favourite dish....What I like about making chicken pulao is that it requires very little effort especially if you use frozen pre made garlic/ginger and use a food processor for chopping the onions. It is perfect for busy week days. Rice: Whilst I like the grains of rice to be separate, I don’t like them to be too al dente. Myself and mt family prefer softer rice grains.

Steps

  3. 3

    Mix well, saute on medium high heat for two minutes
    Let the masala come to a boil, then simmer on low until the chicken is done. The chicken releases it's own liquid so you shouldn't need to add any unless the masala seems like it will stick/burn.

  4. 4

    When the masala is ready the oil will have risen to the top and the chicken will be tender. This can take anywhere between 25-35 minutes depending on your chicken.
    Once the chicken is done add the rice, green chillies, and 3.5 cups of water to the pot along with 1.5 tsp salt....

  5. 5

    Mix well and taste, it should be just a little salty.
    Bring the pulao to a boil and cook partially covered until almost all the water has evaporated then close the lid completely for 5-8 minutes until the remaining moisture has absorbed and the rice is done.

  6. 6

    Gently fluff the rice from the sides and serve with your chutney/raita/achar of choice...
