Description

It should be noted that satsivi made from chicken is a national Caucasian pride, so every cook in a Georgian family pays tribute to this national dish by adding new and new recipes to the treasure trove of Caucasian cuisine. And now I present to you my recipe,

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Step 1

    Cut the chicken meat into pieces. Satsivi is usually made from a whole chicken cut into parts. Of course, you can use only chicken fillet or buy chicken legs or thighs for making satsivi, but traditionally it is correct to prepare satsivi from a whole chicken. Place the cut chicken into a pot. Pour boiling water (must be boiling) over it until the chicken is completely covered with water, and simmer for one hour. Home-raised chicken should be cooked longer.

    Step 5

    Step 5

    Add the chopped nut and spices to the sautéed onion. Add spices to taste, but coriander is essential. Some housewives add flour to the satsivi sauce. I prefer not to do this. The sauce thickens perfectly due to the use of ground nuts.

    Step 6

    Take broth from the pot where the meat was boiled. Pour it into a frying pan and stir. You can adjust the thickness of the satsevi sauce to your preference. For one chicken weighing up to 2 kg, 2-3 ladles of broth will be sufficient.
