Chicken Livers With Red Wine Sauce Food

CHICKEN AND RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook garlic in oil until tender. Place chicken in the skillet, and cook about 10 minutes on each side, until no longer pink and juices run clear.
• Drain oil from skillet. Sprinkle chicken with paprika and 1 cup brown sugar. Pour red wine around chicken. Cover, and simmer about 15 to 20 minutes; lightly baste chicken with wine sauce while cooking. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

RIGATONI WITH CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a large pot of generously salted water until very al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
• Season livers with salt and pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Cook livers, flipping once, until plump and golden brown, about 4 minutes; transfer to a cutting board. Reduce heat to medium and melt remaining tablespoon butter. Add onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook until golden, about 8 minutes. Chop livers and return to pan, along with any juices and sage. Increase heat to medium-high. Add wine; simmer until liquid is reduced by half.
• Add pasta and 1/2 cup reserved pasta water. Simmer until sauce coats pasta; remove from heat. Toss with Parmesan and parsley. If dry, toss with more pasta water, a bit at a time. Divide among 6 bowls; drizzle with oil and sprinkle with Parmesan.

CHICKEN LIVERS WITH RED-WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat half the butter in a heavy saucepan and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until they start taking on a little color. Add celery, carrots and half the garlic. Cook briefly, stirring, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour. Stir to blend.
• Add wine, broth, thyme, bay leaf, parsley sprigs, salt and pepper and bring to the boil. Let simmer 20 minutes. Line a sieve and pour in the sauce. Strain, pushing through as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids. There should be about 1/4 cup.
• Meanwhile, pick over the livers, cutting away and discarding the connecting membranes. Cut the livers in half and then into quarters. Drain thoroughly in a sieve.
• Blend the remaining 1 cup of flour, salt, pepper and half the sage. Dredge the liver pieces in the mixture and shake off excess. Line a large mixing bowl with a large sieve and have it ready for draining the livers.
• Heat about one-third of the oil in a heavy skillet. When it is hot add one-third of the livers. Cook, turning the pieces so that they brown evenly. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until brown and crisp on the outside. Drain.
• Add another third of the oil. When it is hot add another third of the livers. Repeat, draining the livers as necessary and cooking until they are all brown and crisp on the outside.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of butter in a casserole and add the remaining tablespoon of sage and remaining half teaspoon garlic. Cook briefly and add the sauce. Bring to a boil and let simmer about 1 minute. Add the livers and cook to heat thoroughly. Stir in chopped parsley and serve.

Dust the chicken livers with the flour. Increase the heat slightly and add to the skillet. Saute until browned on the outside but still pink in the center, about 3 minutes. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
