    Chicken 65 Biryani Recipe

    Spicy Chicken 65 biryani was on my to do list for quite sometime. Finally i made it few weeks back and it was super hit. I couldn't resist it so i wanted to share it on my blog.

    About Chicken 65 Biryani Recipe

    Making chicken 65 biryani can be little different from the other biryani because since we are frying the chicken separately instead of cooking it with the rice. The rice may not have the same flavour. So i created this recipe. I added half the chicken in the rice and other half i fried and used as garnish. The rice was so flavourful because of the chicken which we added.

    Biryani is a mixed rice dish popular among Indian subcontinent Muslims. It is made with Indian spices, rice, and usually some type of meat or, in some cases, no meat, as well as eggs and potatoes. Chicken 65 is a spicy, deep-fried chicken dish served as an entrée or quick snack at Hotel Buhari in Chennai, India. The dish flavour can
    be attributed to red chilies, but the exact ingredients for the recipe can vary.

    Ingredients for Chicken 65 Biryani Recipe 

    Basmati Rice 

    Basmati rice is a long, slender-grained aromatic rice that has traditionally been grown in India, Nepal, and Pakistan. White basmati rice contains more calories and carbohydrates than regular white rice. It also contains slightly more protein, but the difference is insignificant. Furthermore, both types of grains are highly processed
    and, due to their low fibre content, may cause blood sugar spikes.

    Chicken 

    Biryani-cut chicken is a sumptuous blend of large chunky pieces from half a chicken. It comes with one leg and one bone-in meaty breast, as well as a mix of white and dark meat, soft and tougher meat, all packaged together for the perfect biryani.

    Garam Masala Powder

    The whole spices in the Garam Masala blend have already been toasted before being ground. As a result, it is not necessary to cook it. If the garam masala is added too soon, it will become overcooked and lose its flavour. Garam masala aromatics require only a small amount of heat to release their aroma and flavours.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does chicken 65 taste like?

    Chicken 65 is a spicy, deep-fried Indian chicken dish that can be served as an appetiser or main course. The flavour is primarily derived from red chilis and curry leaves. It can be eaten as a snack and shared with friends. It can also be eaten as a main course with roti or naan.

    What is the difference between Chicken Biryani and chicken 65 biryani?

    The chicken 65 biryani recipe is similar to a standard one, so you don't need to go out of your way to prepare it. Instead of cooking chicken with rice, marinated and fried chicken pieces are layered with rice and biryani masala to cook 'dum' style.
