Shkmeruli or chkmeruli is a traditional chicken dish originating from Georgia. A whole chicken is typically butterflied, browned on both sides, and roasted for about half an hour until fully cooked. The garlic is minced, mixed with butter, milk, and pan drippings in order to create the sauce.

The chicken and the sauce are combined, traditionally in a clay dish called ketsi, and the dish is then baked for a short while before it's served. It's recommended to serve skhmeruli with cheesy mashed potatoes or crusty bread on the side.
