SAUTéED CHICKEN LIVERS AND ONIONS



Sautéed Chicken Livers and Onions image

Most of the time when you buy a whole chicken, the packet of neck, gizzards, and chicken liver tucked in the cavity will leave you wondering what to do with them. Well, these are some of the best-tasting parts. So, packet by packet, collect and freeze the necks and gizzards for a good chicken soup, and the livers for this quick and delicious dish. Quickly sautéed chicken livers and slowly caramelized onions are such natural complements in taste and texture that they're always a welcome supper dish in our house. The kids are a bit finicky about this dish, but I prepare it when Grandma, Giovanni, and I are at home. There's nothing fancy about my version-though I do embellish the onions with a sweet-and-sour finish of vinegar and golden raisins. Chicken livers need a bit of attention-thorough trimming and rinsing, and fast cooking in a small amount of oil-and they'll be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoon golden raisins
1 pound onions, peeled
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons butter
3/4 teaspoon or more salt
2 or 3 fresh bay leaves
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 pound chicken livers
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 large skillets, preferably 12 inches in diameter

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.
  • Some piping-hot Basic Polenta (page 215), or grilled polenta (page 216).
  • Poached Whole Zucchini with Lemon and Olive Oil (page 237).
  • Skillet-Cooked Broccoli (page 277) or Skillet Cauliflower (page 268).

TUSCAN CHICKEN LIVERS



Tuscan Chicken Livers image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound chicken livers
Fine sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 cup chopped red onion
6 anchovy fillets, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
2 tablespoons salted capers, rinsed, drained, and placed in vinegar to cover
1 tablespoon chopped garlic, plus 1 whole clove
2 pinches crushed red-pepper flakes
3/4 cup Vin Santo or dry Marsala
1 medium tomato, very finely chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
4 slices Tuscan bread, toasted

Steps:

  • Wash chicken livers under cold running water. Dry well, and season with salt and pepper. Dust chicken livers with flour; set aside.
  • In a large nonstick saute pan, combine olive oil, onion, sage, chopped garlic, red-pepper flakes, capers, and anchovies. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes. Add chicken livers, one piece at a time. Cook, covered, until evenly browned, about 3 minutes on each side. Add Vin Santo, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the saute pan. Cook until the wine has reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomato, and cook, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. (The dish should be slightly soupy. If it starts to become dry, add a little water.) Remove the saute pan from the heat, and stir in parsley.
  • Rub the toasts with the whole garlic clove. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with black pepper. Spoon the livers over the toasts, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To remove the bitterness from chicken livers, soak them in milk for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Be sure to pat the chicken livers dry before cooking to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the chicken livers over medium heat until they are cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
  • Do not overcook the chicken livers, as this will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Serve the chicken livers immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.

Conclusion:

Chicken livers are a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. When cooked properly, they are tender and flavorful. The marinara sauce in this recipe adds a rich and savory flavor to the chicken livers, making them a perfect meal for any occasion.
