Curried Chicken Livers Recipes

CHICKEN LIVER CURRY

Steps:

• Clean and halve the chicken livers, cutting away the connecting tissue between the lobes.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet and saute the livers about 7 minutes.
• To a blender, add the chicken broth, onion, curry, salt and flour. Cover and blend on high for 6 seconds only.
• Pour this broth mixture over the chicken livers, stirring continuously while bringing it to a boil.
• Stir in the cream (or evaporated milk - it will be less rich) and pepper to taste. Stir and cook over LOW heat about 2 minutes or til thickened.
• Best served over cooked basmati rice!

CURRIED CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together: flour, curry powder, tumeric, garlic powder and pepper.
• Roll chicken livers one by one in flour mixture and place on a plate.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Place chicken livers in a single layer in skillet.
• Sprinkle garlic salt over the chicken livers.
• Let cook about 5 minutes and flip livers over. Sprinkle them with more garlic salt.
• Let cook about 5 more minutes more and test for doneness. Some people like them pink in the middle. I like them well done and browned through. I usually flip them one more time and cook them until the coating is browned all over and no more blood seeps out (about 15 minutes total). Some of the coating will crumble off or stick to the pan. I just scoop it up and serve it all together. Yum!

CURRIED CHICKEN GIZZARDS AND LIVERS
