• Add all spices turmeric powder, red chili powder, ginger, garlic paste, biryani masala, salt, and oil.

• Keep stirring them until water dried out from the chicken. It will take 5 minutes.

• First, keep the flame very low and spread the chicken all over the pan.

• Now spread half of the rice on the top of chicken.

• Spread the fried onion, milk, biryani masala, and butter.

• Now do the same process again, which we did before like spread rice first then fried onion, milk, butter, and biryani masala on the top of the first layer.

• Keep the flame low and cover the pan for 15 minutes.

• After 15 minutes, turn off the flame.
• Now, biryani is ready to serve.
