SPICY PAN FRIED CHICKEN LIVERS WITH LEMON GARLIC DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak chicken livers in mixture of buttermilk, hot sauce, and worcestershire sauce for at LEAST 2 hours in the fridge.
• For the sauce you want to mix mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, old bay seasoning and worcestershire sauce in a bowl until fully incorperated. You want to make it before you fry the livers to give the flavors time to mingle. Place in fridge until just about to serve.
• In a bowl combined corn flour, all purpose flour, black pepper, cayenne pepper, old bay and creole seasoning.
• Add your peanut oil to a large sauce pan. Make sure it's large enough to fit the livers, but leave enough room in between so they are not too crowded. Or you can do them in batches.
• Roll the livers in the dry seasoned mixture and place in the hot pan. Try to keep the heat between Med-high to Med.
• Cook about 8-10 minutes on each side. It depends on the size of the livers. Turn down the temp if they start getting too brown too fast.
• If not sure on their being done, you can just brown them on each side and then pop them in a 350F for about 10 minutes.
• Once done, serve immediately with a generous spoon full of dipping sauce.

• 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.

CHICKEN LIVER WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Wash the chicken livers, get rid of the fat if it has and cut them to half. Pat dry with kitchen paper. Cut half the onions and slice them. Slice finely the bacons.
• Take a big frying pan, heat the oil and butter put the sliced bacons and fry until it is golden. Then you can add the sliced onions and stir fry for another few mins until gets tender.
• You can turn down the heat now and add the chopped tomato (for the juice), and the livers. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 5 mins. Careful the livers can splash if they are wet!
• Check and stir the livers. You can add the crushed black pepper, the wine and the majorams. Cook for another 4-5 minutes. Wait with the salt! It goes only at the end!
• (You can strenght the flavour of the majorams if you crumble them)
• You will see a kind of stew in you pan. Now you can turn up the heat again and stir the stuff and let it thicken a bit. Now it is time to check the livers. Stab them with a knife. If there's no blood coming out from the liver, it means they are ready. Do not overcook the livers, they become hard.
• If the liver is soft and ready, you can turn off the heat and add the rest of the majorams and season with the salt. Salt must be the last one for the liver!
• To serve, you can make boiled rice or serve with fresh white bread. If you have fresh parsley at home, you can chop a littre for dressing. I can assure your family will like it! You can try it with a little pickles too.
• Good apetite!
