Instructions
Marinate the chicken breast in yogurt, turmeric, ginger-garlic paste, and a pinch of salt for 30 minutes.
In a heavy-bottomed pot, sear the chicken until the exterior is lightly browned and aromatic.
Layer the partially cooked basmati rice over the chicken, sprinkling with saffron-infused milk, mint, and cilantro.
Seal the pot with a tight-fitting lid (traditionally using dough) to steam-cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes, allowing the aromatics to perfume the rice.
Once the rice is tender and the chicken is fully cooked, fluff carefully with a fork to maintain the integrity of the grains.
Serve on a warm plate, topped with crispy fried onions and a side of fresh spinach to round out the meal.
