Tips:

  • Choose fresh chicken livers: Look for livers that are plump, smooth, and have a deep red or purplish color. Avoid livers that are slimy, discolored, or have an off odor.
  • Soak the livers in milk: Soaking the livers in milk helps to remove any impurities and mellows out the flavor. Soak the livers for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Rinse the livers thoroughly: After soaking, rinse the livers thoroughly under cold water. This will help to remove any remaining milk or impurities.
  • Season the livers liberally: Chicken livers have a mild flavor, so it's important to season them liberally. Use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili powder.
  • Cook the livers over medium heat: Cooking the livers over medium heat will help to prevent them from becoming tough and overcooked. Cook the livers for 5-7 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the livers immediately: Chicken livers are best served immediately after they are cooked. Serve them with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
