Ingredients
Preparation
Wash the basmati rice (100 g) thoroughly and boil in salted water until al dente, then drain well.
Cut the chicken breast fillet (150 g) into bite-sized cubes and marinate with half of the natural yogurt (100 g), turmeric (1 tsp), and Garam Masala (1 tsp).
Slice the onion (1) into thin strips and roast in a pan until golden brown and crispy – this is my favorite step for the aroma!
Finely chop the garlic clove (1), dice the tomato (1), and sear in the pan together with the marinated chicken (150 g).
Carefully layer the cooked rice (100 g) over the meat mixture, sprinkle with saffron threads (1 pinch), and let simmer briefly over low heat.
For the raita, mix the remaining natural yogurt (100 g) with finely chopped mint (5 leaves).
Arrange the finished biryani on a plate, garnish with the crispy onions (1), and serve with the refreshing raita.
