About Dindigul chicken biryani

Dindigul Chicken Biryani is a flavorful South Indian rice dish originating from Dindigul, Tamil Nadu. Made with seeraga samba rice, succulent pieces of marinated chicken, aromatic spices like cinnamon, cloves, and star anise, and fresh herbs such as coriander and mint, this biryani is renowned for its unique texture and tangy flavor infused with curd and lemon. Traditionally cooked in ghee, it delivers a rich taste, but moderation is essential due to its high-calorie content. The dish is a good source of protein from the chicken and provides energy through the rice. However, the use of ghee and oil can make it calorie-dense, and the spices may be intense for some. Paired with a simple raita or salad, Dindigul Chicken Biryani offers a balanced blend of nutrients and bold flavors, making it a cherished part of South Indian cuisine.
