Chicken Liver Wraps Food

CHICKEN LIVER WRAPS

Steps:

• wrap a piece of liver, along with a slice of water chestnut in a slice of bacon.
• Secure with tooth pick.
• Do this until ingredients are used up.
• Put under broiler and broil until bacon is browned but still pliable or until desired doneness of bacon.
• The liver cooks very quickly, so basically it's the bacon that you are waiting for, to be sure it is cooked.
• The yield depends on how many livers and chestnuts you have.

CHOPPED CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Rinse the livers and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Clean the livers, by trimming and discarding any visible fat, green parts, or membrane. Set the livers aside.
• In a large saute pan, over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the chicken fat and add the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the onions to a plate with a slotted spoon. Wipe out the pan.
• Spread the livers out in a single layer on a sheet pan and season with the salt and pepper. Raise the heat to high, add 2 tablespoons of the fat to the pan and when the fat begins to shimmer, lay the livers in the pan in a single layer. Working in batches, cook the livers turning each over once, until browned, about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the livers to the plate with the onions. Repeat with 2 tablespoons fat and remaining livers. Cool.
• Coarsely chop the livers with a knife (don't be tempted to use a food processor). In a medium bowl, gently combine the livers with the eggs, onions, and remaining 2 tablespoons fat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving. Serve with toast and cornichons if desired.
• Serving suggestion: Toasted rye or pumpernickel bread and cornichons .
• In a small saucepan combine the chicken fat or skin, thyme, garlic, and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low to medium heat. Cook until the fat has rendered (liquefied) and the skin becomes crispy, about 35 to 45 minutes. (Adjust the heat, as needed, to keep the skin from browning too quickly.) Set the chicken fat aside to cool slightly. Strain into a small bowl. If desired reserve the crispy skin. Refrigerate, covered, for up to one week.
• Yields: about 1/2 cup

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Cut bacon strips in half.
• Wash and pat dry livers.
• Sprinkle livers with garlic salt if using.
• Wrap each liver in a halved slice of bacon and secure witha toothpick.
• Repeat.
• Set oven on broil.
• Place Livers on a baking rack or sheet and broil 6-8 minutes on each side.
• Remove and serve hot with warm honey as a dipping option.

BACON CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil setting.
• Cut each slice of bacon in half and wrap around each chicken liver, securing with toothpicks.
• Broil until bacon is cooked and crisp on one side, then turn and repeat (about 6 to 8 minutes each side). Serve with honey in a bowl, for dipping.

CHICKEN LIVERS PERI PERI

Steps:

• Place chicken livers in a large bowl, and pour in 3 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, and lemon juice; season with garlic, cumin, coriander, chili flakes, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Stir together, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Remove livers to a bowl, and reserve marinade.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until tender, about 7 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high, and stir in chicken livers; cook for 2 minutes, being careful not to overcook the livers. Stir in the tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, chicken stock, and the reserved marinade. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Pour in brandy, and heat through.
