Chicken Biryani

Biryani is considered the king of Indian rice dishes, and at Swagat Restaurant in Winnipeg, we honor this tradition with our authentic preparation. Tender chicken pieces are marinated in yogurt and a blend of aromatic spices, then layered with partially cooked basmati rice.

The dish is then slow-cooked using the traditional "dum" method, where the pot is sealed and cooked over low heat, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. Finished with saffron-infused milk and crispy fried onions, our biryani is served with cooling raita. Each grain of rice is perfectly separate yet infused with incredible flavor.
