French Chicken Liver And Green Bean Salad With Garam Masala Recipes

FRENCH CHICKEN LIVER AND GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH GARAM MASALA

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Mix the vinegar, mustard and garlic in a small bowl. Add a little salt and pepper, and whisk in the oil.
• Cook the green beans in boiling salted water until barely tender, about 2 minutes. Drain, cool and set aside.
• Pat the livers dry with paper towels, then season on both sides with salt and the garam masala.
• Heat the butter or oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned livers in one layer and let them brown, about 2 minutes. Turn them over and cook 1 minute more, leaving them pink at the center. Remove from heat.
• Dress the beans and tomatoes, if using, with half the vinaigrette, and add a little salt and pepper. Dress the greens with the rest of the vinaigrette, and pile them on a platter or individual plates. Top the greens with the beans, the tomatoes, if using, and the warm chicken livers.

FRENCH CHICKEN SALAD WITH GREEN BEANS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Blanch green beans in boiling water until tender but not mushy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately immerse in an ice bath to stop the cooking and preserve their color. When beans are cool, drain and cut into 1-inch pieces on the diagonal. In a small bowl, combine mayo and mustard and mix well. In another bowl, combine chicken with green beans, chopped cornichons and capers. Add mayo-mustard mixture and combine well. Serve over greens.

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Arrange chicken breasts in single layer in jelly roll pans or baking pans. Brush both sides with soy sauce and olive oil. Sprinkle both sides with pepper.

• Arrange the beans on serving plates with the lettuce leaves and watercress. Add the vinegar to the pan, cook for a couple of seconds then spoon over the salad. Serve warm with crusty granary bread.
