Chicken biryani is a favourite Indian rice dish. This simple recipe includes chicken and keeps the ingredients list relatively short for and easy, but tasty Indian-inspired health meal.
1 Combine the marinade ingredients and stir in the chicken. Set aside while you prepare the remainder of the dish.
2 In a large heavy-based saucepan, heat the oil and gently sauté the onions and garlic till soft. Add the spices, bay leaves and the marinated chicken, stirring frequently until the chicken is browned.
3 Stir in the rice and stock and allow to simmer. When the liquid is simmering put the lid on and turn the heat down very low. Cook without stirring for 25 minutes then check to see if the rice is cooked; if it is not completely cooked give it a quick stir, replace the lid and cook for a further 5 minutes.
4 When the rice is tender, fork it through to fluff it up then cover with a tea towel till needed. Serve with chutney and naan bread.
Biryani can also be made with lamb, beef, mutton and seafood, or as a vegetarian dish.
