Eternally Good Chopped Liver Recipes

CHOPPED LIVER RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the chicken livers on paper towels to drain. Place the eggs in your food processor bowl.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large 12-inch skillet. Add the chopped onion and fry until golden, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook a few more seconds, just until no longer raw. Using a spatula, transfer the skillet contents, including any remaining oil, to the food processor.
• Add 2 more tablespoons of oil to the skillet. Add the chicken livers and cook them over medium heat (not higher or they could burst) until brown on the outside and barely pink on the inside, about 3 minutes per side. Overcooked livers are dry and grainy.*
• Again, use the spatula to transfer the skillet contents, including the livers, the oil, and any tasty bits left on the bottom of the skillet, to the food processor.
• Add the salt and pepper. Process briefly, about 30 seconds, stopping once to scrape the sides and bottom with a spatula. You don't want the chopped liver to be as smooth as a liver pate. It should have a bit more texture to it.
• Transfer the chopped liver to a serving dish. Cover and keep in the fridge for at least two hours, allowing the flavors to meld. Don't eat it when still warm! It won't be very good. It needs time to develop its deep flavor. Its flavor, as well as its texture, greatly improves after a rest in the fridge.

Steps:

• Broil the liver on both sides until just cooked (do not overcook the liver!) cool completely, then cut into about 1-1/2 inch pieces; set aside.
• Sauté the onions in 4 tablespoon oil until caramelized (this should take about 15-20 minutes; cool slightly.
• Process the cooked chicken then measure out 1/4 cup.
• Process the liver and onions in a food processor until minced; add in all remaining ingredients along with the 1/4 cup minced chicken; process until blended about 10 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
• Season with salt and lots black pepper.
• Transfer to a bowl, cover and chill for a minimum of 3 hours or overnight before using.
• The mixture will firm up when chilled (make certain to keep a spoon handy near the fridge, you won't be able to stop tasting this LOL!).
