Chicken Donne Biriyani benefits are many as it's traditionally made the way village biriyani is meant to be. Since marinated chicken chunks are coated in mint or pudina paste, it is rich in iron and important vitamins and minerals. Coriander has anti-inflammatory health benefits and loaded with phytonutrients.

Not any biryani can be served in a donne (the aforementioned leaf pouch). While there are several technical differences, the key ones are that it's not made with basmati rice, neither the flavour of onion nor tomato is prominent in the masala, and it's virtually unknown outside Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.

Another important distinction that sets the donne biryani apart from other biryanis is the significant lack of onion and tomato flavours in the masala. While other states might be yet to discover this dish, the hype in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu is real enough for more than one signature joint to hit for the same.
