How to Make Kotmis Satsivi Georgian Roast Chicken With Garlic Walnut Sauce

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Rinse the chicken and pat it dry. Season generously with salt and pepper, inside and out.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, garlic cloves, cilantro, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Process in a food processor until a smooth paste forms. Gradually add water or chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
  4. Place the chicken in a roasting pan. Spread half of the walnut sauce evenly over the chicken.
  5. Roast the chicken for 60-70 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
  6. Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
  7. Meanwhile, pour the remaining walnut sauce into a saucepan and gently warm it over low heat. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Carve the chicken and serve it generously drizzled with the warm walnut sauce. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs, if desired.
