Soak basmati rice in water for 30 minutes and drain.

Heat oil in a large pot and fry sliced onions until golden brown, then remove half for garnishing.

Add marinated chicken to the pot and cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.

Add chopped tomatoes and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.

Layer the soaked rice over the chicken in the pot.

Sprinkle chopped coriander and mint leaves over the rice.

Drizzle lemon juice and saffron-infused water over the rice.

Add whole spices like cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon on top.

Cover the pot tightly with a lid and cook on low heat for 25-30 minutes until rice is fully cooked and fluffy.

Remove from heat and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Garnish with fried onions and serve with raita or salad.
