Chef's Tips
For best results, marinate the chicken with yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and spices for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Soak the basmati rice for 30 minutes before cooking for best texture and aroma.
For authentic flavor, add a few strands of saffron soaked in warm milk just before serving.
