CHICKEN LIVERS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Put onions in a large skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring infrequently, until onions are dry and almost sticking to pan, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in a tablespoon of oil or butter and a large pinch of salt and a few grindings of black pepper, add rosemary and turn heat down to medium-low. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates, about 15 minutes more. Remove vegetables from pan; set aside.
• Wipe pan with a paper towel, put it over medium-high heat and add remaining oil or butter. When oil is hot or foam from butter has subsided, add chicken livers. Keep heat high and cook livers quickly, turning them until brown and crisp on both sides but still pink on inside, about 3 or 4 minutes total. Remove from pan.
• Return vegetables to pan along with vinegar and 2 or 3 tablespoons water, just enough to deglaze; stir well to combine and serve with livers and crusty bread, or on toast.

SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Place the chicken livers in a colander, and rinse with water. Drain the livers well. Whisk together the egg and milk in a shallow bowl until well blended. Place the flour, garlic powder, and salt and pepper in a resealable plastic zipper bag, and shake to combine.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the chicken livers in the bowl of egg and milk mixture, and coat each liver. Place the livers, one at a time, into the plastic bag of flour mixture, and shake the bag to coat the each liver completely.
• Gently place the coated livers, a few at a time, into the hot oil. Cover the pan of oil with a frying screen to avoid getting burned by spatters of oil that will pop out as the livers fry. Deep fry the livers until crisp and golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.

CHICKEN LIVERS WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Boil water, add bouillon to dissolve, set aside.
• Melt margarine in 8 inch skillet.
• Brown livers over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 3-4 minutes.
• Stir in mushrooms (with liquid)
• Add bouillon/water, flour, salt(if using), pepper and parsley.
• Heat to boiling.
• Reduce heat and simmer uncovered
• Stir occasionally until livers are done, about 5 minutes.
• I usually use fresh sliced mushrooms as I don't really care for canned. Sorry, I'm not sure of the exact amount I use, I just add until it looks like enough -- oh, and I add about another 1/8 - 1/4 cup of water too if I use fresh mushrooms.
• I also add about 1/4 cup of diced onions and fry with liver for added flavour.
• I also do not add additional salt as I feel there is enough in the bouillon but the choice is yours.
