Chicken Biryani
Chicken Biryani is a fragrant South Asian rice dish featuring marinated chicken layered with long-grain basmati rice and slow-cooked with spices like saffron, cumin, and cardamom. This protein-rich meal derives its distinctive golden color and aroma from the 'dum' cooking method, where ingredients steam together in a sealed pot. While nutritionally dense due to its complex carb base and lean poultry, traditional versions often include ghee or oil, contributing to its calorie content. It is typically served with raita (yogurt sauce) to balance the bold spices.
