Georgian-style turkey chakhokhbili
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. It turns out quite spicy, so adjust the taste to your preference. If you don't have dry adjika, you can substitute it with ready-made adjika, but adjust the proportions to taste. You can use any part of the turkey. The most suitable herbs are parsley, basil, cilantro, and dill—everything depends on your preference. Serve chakhokhbili with rice, boiled potatoes, and plenty of fresh herbs. The dish is ready to be served.
