CHICKEN WITH SAUTEED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Saute the onions over medium-low heat until tender and golden. Add the sugar after the first 5 minutes of cooking. Caramelizing the onions will take about 15 minutes; stir occasionally. Remove the onions from the skillet with a slotted spatula; set aside.
• Brush the chicken on both sides with mustard; sprinkle with pepper. Saute in the same skillet over medium heat, about 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
• Arrange the reserved onions over the chicken; heat through. Serve with additional cracked pepper, if desired.

SAUTéED CHICKEN LIVERS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Put the raisins in a bowl with warm water to cover, so they plump up for a few minutes.
• Slice the onions in half and then crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick half moons (see photo, page 28). Put 2 tablespoons of oil and 2 of butter in one of the skillets and set it over medium heat. As the butter melts, stir in the onions, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and drop in the bay leaves. Shake the pan and turn the onions as they heat and start to sizzle, then lower the heat slightly and cook the onions slowly as they gradually wilt and start to color, stirring and tossing them occasionally.
• After 15 minutes or so, when the onions are deep gold all over, raise the heat a bit, pour in the vinegar, and cook for a minute, stirring the onions in the vinegar as it steams and evaporates. Drain the raisins, and gently squeeze out the excess liquid; scatter them in the skillet and toss together with the onions. Now lower the heat, and continue cooking the onions until they're as dark and caramelized as you want them be. Turn off the heat, and let the onions rest in the hot pan.
• While the onions are cooking, clean the livers (I do this on paper towels): with a paring knife remove all the fat, veins, and membranes, and slice the livers into separate lobes. Rinse them well, then pat dry with fresh paper towels. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt and grind pepper on all surfaces of the livers.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 of butter in the second skillet, over medium-high heat, until the butter is melted and foaming. Before the butter begins to color, lay the livers in the pan, without crowding them. With the heat high, cook the livers for 2 minutes or a bit more, until they're browned and crisped on the underside, then turn them over (in the order in which you put them in the pan). Cook about 2 minutes on the second side, until they are nicely crisped all over, and lift them-a couple at a time-with a spider or slotted spoon; let the oil drain off, and place them in the first, warm skillet, next to the onions. Don't overcook the livers: they should still be slightly pink inside when you move them. Taste a piece and season with more salt and pepper if you want.
• If you will be serving right away, heap the onions on top of the livers, then spoon onions and liver together onto warm serving plates. If serving is delayed, leave the onions and livers in separate parts of the pan so the livers don't get soggy. Smother the livers with onions when you serve.

• Slice the onion and put in the bag(s).
• Add all remaining ingredients.
• Marinate no longer than 2 hours and as little as 1/2 an hour.
• Pull the chicken out of the bag - do NOT discard the onions.
• Grill the chicken over medium heat, watching closely not to over cook -- they will cook fast because they've been pounded thin. Maybe 5 minutes per side -- again just watch closely.
• While the chicken is grilling drain the onions discarding the marinade and saute them on the stove top or over the grill in a vegetable basket.
• You shouldn't need any oil there will be plenty coated on the onions.
• This will take about 15 minutes.
