Chicken Biryani

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons olive oil or ghee if available
4 chicken thighs boneless and skinless, cut into 1″ chunks
1 yellow onion cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon garlic minced
1 tablespoon ginger minced
2 roma tomatoes grated
1/2 cup water
1 green bell pepper sliced
2 teaspoons Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons garam masala

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups basmati rice rinsed and drained

About the Recipe

Chicken Biryani is a bold and flavorful Indian dish with crazy tender bites of chicken with bell peppers in a deliciously spiced and fragrant rice.
This biryani is easier than most, no whole spices being toasted and ground.
No red curry paste or ginger garlic pastes are needed.
The resulting flavors are incredibly delicious and addicting.
A classic biryani is made using basmati rice.
This rice is thinner and longer than a traditional long grain rice.
