Tips

  • Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes for better flavor.
  • Cook onions on high heat for 8-10 minutes until golden brown, as this is important for the flavor.
  • When cooking the chicken and tomatoes, use your spatula to crush the tomatoes to release the juices.
  • Make sure the cooked basmati rice is fluffy and not overcooked.
  • Gently mix the rice, saffron water, and other ingredients to avoid breaking the rice.
  • Crispy onion garnish is optional
