CHICKEN LIVERS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND WINE-GRANDMA STYLE

Steps:

• Grab a bowl and pour some milk over the chicken livers enough to cover them.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and keep it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• After soaking the livers in milk, rinse them few times with clean water until you remove all milk. Remove the excess water with paper towels.
• Add some oil to a skillet and chop an onion.
• Add it to the skillet.
• Add the chicken livers and sauté them together until the onion gets translucent.
• Add salt and pepper, some thyme, marjoram, and a glass of white wine.
• Cover the skillet and let the liver cook on medium-low heat until the liver is done and the liquid in the pan is almost evaporated.

CHICKEN LIVERS WITH ONION

Steps:

• Melt one third of the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Chop the onion and add it to the pan. Sautée the onion until soft, about 3 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low, add the water and cover the pan. Let the onion swell.
• In the meantime, prepare the chicken livers. Trim off any spleens if present. Cut the larger chunks to make all the pieces about the same size. Coat in flour all the livers.
• Add the remaining butter to the pan, return the heat to medium-high and add the floured liver. Turn the livers often to ensure they get cooked through. Liver will release a reddish liquid while cooking, make sure to cook it all off. When it has stopped "bleeding" it should have cooked through - check one of the thickest pieces by cutting it in half.
• When completely cooked through, remove from the heat and serve with a sprinkle of salt flakes on top.

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

STOLEN GARLIC CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Wash, trim and dry the Chicken Livers.
• DRY fry them, NO OIL, in a frying pan, for three or four minutes until cooked through.
• Whilst still on the cooker add the oil, lemon juice and salt to taste.
• Stir once gently to mix.
• Serve immediately into a single portion dish and sprinkle liberally with chopped garlic, the more the better.
• The dry fry technique prevents the liver from browning and keeps it tender enough to melt in your mouth.
• Don't use Virgin Olive oil, the Greeks and Italians only use that for salads and dressings, very rarely for cooking.
• Bon Appetite!

CHICKEN LIVERS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Pick over the livers, cutting away any fatty bits and sinew, then pat the livers dry. Place the shallot, parsley and capers into a bowl and drizzle with half the olive oil and 1 tbsp of the Sherry vinegar.
• Toast the bread (preferably on a griddle but a toaster is fine). Toss the livers in the flour and cayenne pepper, and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat the rest of the oil in a frying pan and fry the livers over a really high heat for 4-5 mins until brown and crisp on the outside and cooked, but still a little pink in the middle. Splash remaining vinegar into the pan and bubble down for 1 min.
• Tip the contents of the pan in with the shallot and parsley, toss everything together, season to taste, then pile onto the toasted bread. Season with a little crunchy sea salt and serve.
