Instructions
- Wash the Basmati rice thoroughly in cold water and soak it in water for 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
- Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chilies. Sauté for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
- Add the chicken pieces and cook until they turn white on all sides.
- Stir in the cumin seeds, coriander powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the spices to blend with the chicken.
- Pour in 1 litre of water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the chicken simmer for about 20 minutes. This will create a flavourful chicken broth (Yakhni).
- Add the soaked and drained Basmati rice to the chicken broth. Stir well and add the frozen peas.
- Cover the pot and let it cook on low heat for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- Fluff the Chicken Yakhni Pulao with a fork, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve hot.
