Roasted Chicken with Avocado-Cilantro Sauce
Venezuelan guasacaca, a bright, tangy sauce made from avocados, herbs and mild green chilies, is a standard accompaniment to grilled meats and chicken. Here we simply roast bone-in chicken thighs or breasts in a hot oven. The cool, creamy avocado sauce is a perfect contrast to the golden brown, crisp-skinned meat.

Easy weeknight staple
Simple easy weeknight staple. Agreed way too much sauce but I thinned extras for salad dressing and saved rest for dipping later. Chicken skin came out night and crispy, for someone like me who needs some basic cooking skills this is a great one. I did put my chicken pieces in a cast iron skillet rather than baking dish and skin was still crispy.

The avocado-cilantro sauce is really lovely.
Perfect balance of flavors. The recipe makes entirely too much of it though.
