Almost all of us prepare chicken pulao. I thought of trying with a slight twist to my chicken pulao today by frying the chicken in tawa and adding those to the regular ones. I have already posted cabbage channa pulao, millet pulao and coriander pulao, radish capsicum pulao. Check out that too.

Method:

2. Marinate the chicken with all the ingredients for it and keep it aside for 15 mins.
3. Heat a tawa. Add oil. Once it starts heated well place the chicken pieces. Don't flip it immediately. Let it cook for 3 mins. Then flip on the other side. Cook for 2-3 mins. It should become nice golden color (breast pieces gets cooked fast). Switch off.
4. Switch on the IP. Add oil, ghee. Add all the whole garam masalas. Add cashews.
5. Add onions, green chillies. Saute till it becomes golden brown.

7. Close the lid. Press the manual for 5 mins in High Pressure HP in sealed position. Then do Natural Pressure Release NPR.
8. Open the lid. Mix gently.

You can serve with any nonveg gravy (cumin pepper egg masala) with this pulao.
