  This a regular for me as a cheap Saturday night takeaway alternative...always a crowd pleaser, kids absolutely love it and it's simple and quick to make. I roast chicken legs or thighs and strip the meat instead of breats which is both cheaper and the meat is tastier (in my opinion) Enjoy!!

  I followed the recipe exactly as it said and my rice ended up very sticky. Not the fluffy rice i was expecting. Definately too much stock there. Even though I ended up with sticky rice, it was still very nice.

  Really good, quick, simple curry. I let it dry out a little bit.... maybe use 800ml instead of 850ml of stock.

  Sorry this is not a chicken biriyani. This is a chicken pulao recipe. No short-cut like this, in biriyani if you want the taste of biriyani. You have to put some time ,care and patience to cook real biriyani. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Easy-Chicken-Recipes/163766820353082

  Brilliant, family (3 generations) all loved it! Recipe allows for leftovers which I can't wait to have for lunch tomorrow. Think we'll add more raisins next time.

  Really tasty - I was concerned that all the liquid wouldn't be absorbed but it did! I just added some steamed green beans and broccoli at the end for a bit of health.

  Not eating meat we substitute the chicken with either quorn pieces or prawns and use veg stock rather than chicken stock. The results are fantastic, great recipe and easy to cook.
