Chicken Biryani
In many parts of the world, chicken biryani is a popular rice dish with a lot of flavors. Rice, chicken and a variety of spices are typically the main components. Before the rice is cooked, the chicken is typically marinated in a yogurt and spice mixture. Fried onions, nuts, and raisins are common additions to the dish's garnish. Biryani is a great option for a delicious and filling meal because it usually comes with raita, a yogurt-based sauce.
