Chicken pulav is one of our favourite dish for lunch especially when we don't feel like having curry along with rice .
The fresh green masala gives this pulav very nice flavor and lovely colour, it taste very good with some raita and best thing is it gets ready in few minutes in a pressure cooker .
So this is perfect dish when you want something yummy which gets ready in less time.if the masala is made and kept in fridge it barely takes some time to prepare this.
