Author: Siddhi Shirsat // Category: , ,

This spicy chicken rice is a very quick and tasty rice item.It is a one pot meal which can be done when there is less time for cooking.I make it in such situations.Its very spicy rice perfect for winter season.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup chicken pieces(medium size)
  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 3/4 cup onion finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup sliced onion
  • 2-3 table spoon green paste(ginger-garlic-corainder-green chilli paste)
  • 1/2 tea spoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tea spoon chilli powder
  • 3/4 tea spoon garam masala
  • 1 chicken maggi cube
  • 1 table spoon lemon juice
  • 2 table spoon cashewnuts
  • whole masalas(4 cloves, 5 peppercorns,2 bay leaves,1"cinnamon stick, 1 star anise)
  • ghee
  • salt

METHOD:

Marinate the chicken pieces with salt , turmeric and green paste.Keep it aside for some time.Soak the rice in water and drain it and keep aside for 20 mins.

Heat ghee in a vessel and add finely chopped onion.Saute it till it turns light brown.Now add the marinated chicken pieces and saute for 4-5 mins.Add little water and close the lid and let the chicken pieces get cooked.It will take around 10-15 mins.

Meanwhile heat a pan with little ghee.Add all whole masalas and saute for 2 mins.Now add the soaked rice and saute for 3-4 mins.

when the chicken is cooked add the sauted rice in it and mix it well.Now add 2 cups water and stir.Add chilli powder, garam masala, powdered maggi chicken cube, salt and stir it well.

Close the lid and let the rice get cooked.Meanwhile heat 1/2 cup oil in a small kadai and fry the sliced onions till golden brown and crisp.

When the rice is almost cooked add cashewnuts.Add more water if required to cook the rice in middle.When rice is fully cooked spinkle lemon juice and remove from flame.

Sprinkle crisp fried onions and serve hot.
