Biryani - Greean Beans and Chicken Thighs

#QuarantineCooking
One of the recipes we made and liked during the lockdown.

Marinate the chicken thighs with Shaan Tandoori Masala and Garlic Salt, for 5-6 hours.
Sautee Onion/ fresh Green beans/ nuts separately.
Sautee the Chicken Thighs and keep separately.
Make a whole-spice mix in cotton cloth (Coriander Seeds, Elaichi, Peppercorns, cinnamon sticks, fenugreek seeds).
Heat some ghee, add badishep (fennel seeds), potatoes and add the spice-mix cloth and some water. After the potatoes are half-way cooked, add in Basmati Rice and hot water. Let it come to a boil.
Remove the spice-mix cloth.
Add in the chicken thighs at the bottom of the rice-potatoes mixture.
After the rice grains look cooked, spread the green-beans/onion/nuts mixture on the top.
Take it off the heat and let it sit for 15 min and let the flavors marry.

Serve it with Raita or just cool cucumbers.
