Chettinad Chicken Thokku Biryani
by Kavitha · Tamil
Tender pieces of chicken are first cooked in a bold, spicy Chettinad-style thokku — a thick, intensely flavorful South Indian masala paste made with freshly roasted spices, coconut, black pepper, fennel, and aromatic herbs. This spicy chicken mixture is then layered with fragrant long-grain rice and slow-cooked together so the rice absorbs all the rich, fiery flavors.
