Indulge in our signature Chicken Biryani, Lovely Sweets's most beloved dish. Oven-roasted chicken breast is blended with a rich, velvety tomato butter sauce infused with aromatic spices. This iconic North Indian dish delivers the perfect balance of creamy texture and bold flavors.
Chicken Biryani is one of the most celebrated dishes in Indian cuisine, and at Lovely Sweets, we prepare it using the traditional dum pukht (slow-cooking) method. Our version starts with chicken that's marinated in yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and aromatic spices, then partially cooked with caramelized onions and tomatoes.
The magic happens when we layer this spiced chicken with partially cooked premium basmati rice that's been infused with saffron, whole spices like bay leaves and cinnamon, and fresh herbs like mint and cilantro. The pot is then sealed and slow-cooked, allowing the flavors to meld together while the rice cooks to perfection. Each spoonful delivers layers of flavor - the tender chicken, the fragrant rice, the crispy fried onions, and those aromatic spices. Served with raita (yogurt sauce), it's a complete meal in itself.
