To make Classic Georgian Chicken Tabaka, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

To prepare the chicken, start by cleaning and patting it dry. Then, using a sharp knife or kitchen shears, cut along the backbone of the chicken and remove it. Flatten the chicken by pressing down on the breastbone until it cracks.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, coriander, cumin, and olive oil. Rub the mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get it into all the nooks and crannies.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the chicken on the grill, skin-side down, and cook for about 10-12 minutes. Flip the chicken over and continue cooking for another 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the chicken with lemon slices on the side.
