Healthy Chicken Biryani Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced
• 1 cup brown basmati rice
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch ginger, grated
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the diced chicken and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Add coriander, turmeric, garam masala, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken with spices.
5. Add the brown basmati rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
6. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add broccoli florets on top of the rice. Cover and steam until tender.
7. Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot.
