Kote nuki works well when your opponent seizes your right (left) hand with his right (left) hand as illustrated in the right figure. grip kotenuki
The opponent seizes your right wrist by his right hand. Deliver Meuchi right away and, take Kagite guard style. Move to Kote nuki. Turn your palm down and push out your elbow from inside out, not moving the pivot. Turn your elbow out till your wrist is released completely. Hit into his face with the hand just released.

NGWrong:
This will not work well, if you try to escape when his arm is not stretched straight. He can follow your movement if his arm has freedom to bend.
Never try to escape by pulling your hand.
OKTips:
Stretch his elbow straight. It is the most inportant check point in Kotenuki. As far as his arm is straight, you can easily apply Kotenuki.
When you push out your elbow, do not move the pivot but turn your wrist like cutting his thumb.
