Stir Fried Chicken Livers China Y Criolla Style Recipes

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.

• Notes:.
• You can double the recipe ingredients to serve 4 people (times may vary) and also this recipe can be served as a side dish as well Further, I have tried first placing the chicken livers in hot oil and then drained. Then I added to the wok, but the chicken livers still releases a lot of liquid which will become cloudy and a runny sauce (not to appealing).
