Wash the rice thoroughly in normal running water and boil them in 4 cups of water by adding little amount of salt. Heat sufficient oil in a pan, deep fry the slices of onion until browned and remove on oil absorbent paper. Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a non-stick pan and add whole garam masala. Saute for few seconds and now add thinly chopped onion along with thinly chopped green chillies. Saute until onion translucent. Add the marinated chicken pieces and mix well.

Egg is an optional ingredient in this biryani. I use it because my family likes combine taste of chicken and boiled eggs.
