About Our Chicken Dum Biryani

Chicken Dum Biryani is a royal delicacy and one of our most celebrated dishes. At Calgary Hot Plate Restaurant & Sweets, our authentic recipe begins with premium chicken marinated in yogurt and aromatic spices. The chicken is then layered with long-grain basmati rice and slow-cooked in the traditional dum style, allowing the flavors to meld perfectly. Each grain of rice is infused with the essence of saffron, mint, and our special blend of biryani spices.

What makes our Chicken Dum Biryani special is the perfect balance of flavors and textures – tender, juicy chicken, fragrant rice, and a harmonious blend of spices. At Hot Plate, we believe every meal tells a story, and this dish is garnished with crispy fried onions, fresh mint, and served with raita (yogurt sauce) on the side, making it a complete meal that's perfect for any occasion.
