Method
For Chicken Tikka Marination
Using a knife make cuts in chicken tikka pieces.

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl except the last two and rub it thoroughly onto the chicken
pieces. Cover the remaining with marinade. Give it a koyle-ka-dum and allow it to marinate for
at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.

Heat the oil & cook marinated chicken tikka on a high heat just to get a little color.

Add half a cup of water and cook with the lid covered for 15 minutes. After a few minutes flip to
ensure even cooking on both sides. Cook until the meat is tender. Keep aside.

For Biryani Masala

Wash & soak National Basmati Rice for at least 15 minutes.

Heat the oil in a large pot and fry the onions till they are golden in color.

To this add National Ginger Paste, National Garlic Paste, National Quorma Masala, crushed
chili, National Iodized Salt and yogurt; cook for 4-5 minutes.

In a large pan bring 3 liters of water to a rapid boil; add 3 tbsp National Iodized Salt and 2-3
lemons (sliced). Add the drained rice and boil till rice reaches do kanni stage. Strain.

Start layering the masala with the cooked chicken tikkas. Then sprinkle green chili, fresh
coriander, fresh mint leaves, and lemon slices. Finally top with the rice and sprinkle a pinch of
orange food color. Leave for dum.

Mix gently and serve!
