Saute of Chicken Livers, Bacon and Apples image

My favorite chicken liver recipe. I serve with thin egg noodles. The recipe notes: do not stir the chicken livers around as you saute them; that prevents the development of the crisp, firm outside crust which is an agreeable characteristic of this dish. Recommended side dish: some kind of spinach or other preferred greens.

Categories     Chicken Livers

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb chicken liver
6 slices bacon, diced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons shallots, finely chopped
3/4 cup tart apple, finely diced
3 tablespoons calvados or 3 tablespoons Applejack
6 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Pat livers dry.
  • Saute the bacon with 1 T butter in a 10-inch skillet, until the bacon fat has rendered out.
  • With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon bits and reserve until later. In the remaining bacon fat, saute the chicken livers over medium-high heat (in a couple of batches, if necessary). Remove livers and reserve.
  • Remove all but 1 T of the fat in the skillet; in the remaining fat, saute the shallots until soft. Then add the apples, Calvados and heavy cream. With a wooden spoon, scrape up the browned particles in the bottom of the pan and incorporate.
  • Return the chicken livers and bacon to the simmering cream and cook them about 3 minutes more, keeping the heat low so they do not toughen.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings. Whisk in the last tablespoon of btuter. Dust with parsley. Serve.
