Instant Pot Chicken Biryani

I seasoned the chicken with the spices in addition to salt and pepper prior to browning. I also used bone broth.

The rice got a little overcooked. Redid chicken thighs at 5 minutes instead of 7

Delicious, simple, great for meal prep, and my house now smells amazing.

I made a bunch of alterations to this recipe when I made it, but it's been a while and I forget now. I know I used a pre-made spice mix. It was very spicy! All we had to do was add sour cream until it was to our tolerance, and even my kids liked it.

I loved this, and so did my son, until his dad said he didn't like it (take note, parents: your kids are learning how to react to food through you!). the star anise was the breaking point, flavor-profile-wise. if I make it again, I'll leave the star anise out, but this is a great one-pot Indian dish.

We added raisins to add another layer of flavor and my picky kids absolutely loved it. I was so surprised. Super easy!

Followed recipe to the letter (rarely happens) using chicken thighs, and it turned out beautifully. My husband had seconds, and he never has seconds.

Will do 1.5 cups rice and 5/6 chicken thighs next time

I cannot cook Indian food but this was amazing love it

Suggestions by others: Double chicken, keep other quantities the same. Add 1 tin lentils after releasing pressure.
