Hyderabadi chicken biryani is an aromatic, mouth-watering and authentic Indian dish with succulent chicken in layers of fluffy rice, fragrant spices and fried onions. Do try this recipe and I m damn sure you all will love it .. I always prefer to eat Hyderabadi style biriyani than pressure cooker biryani as it tastes unique and very tasty.
