Boil the chicken with onion until cooked (don’t throw the water out – strain and use the broth again to cook rice!)

With the same pan, fry peas and carrots and set aside

In a saucepan with oil fry the potatoes until nice and golden. Set aside

Fry the onions, and set them aside

In a pot, add 1 ½ cup chicken water, 1 tsp oil, 1 tsp biryani spice and 1 cup rice, salt/pepper mix and bring them to a boil. Once water has reached its boiling point, simmer down to medium heat and cover for 10 minutes

Let the rice sit for 5 mins. Then fluff it up with a fork and add all the ingredients previously set aside into the rice and mix.
