Chicken Biryani in Minutes!
I have done the impossible. I’ve come up with a biryani recipe that you can prep in minutes. I’m not even going to pretend to be humble here lol, this biryani is incredible and incredibly easy to make. This is a Pour and Cook recipe – meaning, you dump ingredients into your instant pot and cook. Just mix raw chicken, greek yogurt, spices, and a couple of other ingredients in your instant pot. Pour rice and water over top. Press start. Walk away, preferably to the living room where you can watch some Netflix, and then about halfway through an episode, walk back into the kitchen to find a perfectly cooked biryani with tender pieces of chicken and separate grains of basmati rice. Should I make it a required part of the directions to watch television while you wait? You can tell your partner/roommate/child/pet/yourself that Ashley told you to do this to ensure perfect biryani. I really think it helps (lol). 😂
How to make Pour and Cook Biryani Step-by-Step:
Dump the chicken and marinade ingredients into the instant pot’s steel insert and then mix it up! Add rice, water and pressure cook! Garnish with nuts, raisins, cilantro, and mint! That’s it!
A few things to know about this simple biryani recipe:
I’m aware that the Chicken Biryani that’s already on my site is one of my most popular recipes. I love it, and I know you do too (it has hundreds of amazing reviews). But limited time combined with my desire to eat well has forced me to develop another, simpler method for chicken biryani. This pour and cook recipe. And you know what? It’s fantastic. I honestly can’t decide which recipe for chicken biryani I like better. If you make both, I’d love to know. Like this recipe?
