Shkmeruli — Georgian Chicken in Garlic Milk Sauce
Georgia's gloriously garlicky chicken: a bird crisped golden in a hot pan, then bathed in a warm sauce of milk and a frankly heroic amount of garlic until the whole thing turns into something rich, savoury and impossible to stop eating. Shkmeruli comes from the village of Shkmeri, and the magic is the contrast — crisp chicken skin softening into a creamy, pungent, garlic-laden sauce that begs to be mopped up with bread.
