Chicken Livers With Caramelized Onions And Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Put onions in a large skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring infrequently, until onions are dry and almost sticking to pan, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in a tablespoon of oil or butter and a large pinch of salt and a few grindings of black pepper, add rosemary and turn heat down to medium-low. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates, about 15 minutes more. Remove vegetables from pan; set aside.
• Wipe pan with a paper towel, put it over medium-high heat and add remaining oil or butter. When oil is hot or foam from butter has subsided, add chicken livers. Keep heat high and cook livers quickly, turning them until brown and crisp on both sides but still pink on inside, about 3 or 4 minutes total. Remove from pan.
• Return vegetables to pan along with vinegar and 2 or 3 tablespoons water, just enough to deglaze; stir well to combine and serve with livers and crusty bread, or on toast.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil & red pepper flakes(if using) in a large skillet.
• Saute onions until caramelized.
• Add bay leaf and the livers.
• Cook 5-7 minutes or until completely cooked through.
• Add white wine and simmer until half the wine evaporates.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a separate skillet.
• Sauté mushrooms & season with salt and pepper.
• Cook until tender.
• Combine mushrooms & roasted garlic with the livers.
• Cook fettuccine according to the directions.
• Drain and toss with the sauce.
• Stir in parsley and sprinkle with cheeses.

Steps:

• Dice up onions and bacon and start them simmering in butter and garlic in a small pan. Leave this on a low heat until the onions become translucent and start becoming sweet.
• While all that is on the stove, chop up your livers and prepare a flour batter seasoned with salt and pepper. Get a thick bottom pan and let it get very hot. Flour up your meat and drop it in in batches. Keep it turning so it browns on all sides but only keep it in for around 1-2min. The inside of the meat should still be lovely and soft when you bite into it. You do NOT want to overcook livers, they have a beautiful flavor on their own.
• Serve with a side of mash potatoes and parsnips and you've got a lovely meal!

Steps:

• In a frying pan, heat 2 Tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat.
• Add the onions, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper and sugar.
• Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are well browned, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the onions from the pan and put on a serving platter or individual plates and keep warm.
• In the same frying pan, heat the remaining 1 Tablespoon of oil over moderately high heat.
• Season the chicken livers with the remaining salt & pepper.
• Put the livers in the pan, in two batches if necessary, and cook for 2 minutes. Turn and cook until browned, about 2 minutes longer.
• The livers should still be pink inside.
• Remove the chicken livers from the pan and put them on top of the onions.
• Return the pan to the heat and add Madeira.
• Boil rapidly, scraping the bottom of the pan to dislodge any brown bits, for 1 minute.
• Pour the sauce over the livers and the onions.
• Top with egg (if using) and parsley.
• Variations: Use 1/2 cup of Sherry or 1/2 cup of Port instead of Madeira.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter with 2 tablespoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook onions with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon rosemary, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden brown, about 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer onions to a plate and loosely cover with foil.
• Pat livers dry and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook livers, turning over once, until browned and just pink inside, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to plate with onions.
• Add grapes and remaining 1/4 teaspoon rosemary and sauté over moderately high heat, shaking skillet, 1 minute. Add vinegar and deglaze skillet, stirring and scraping up brown bits. Swirl in remaining tablespoon butter, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pour over liver and onions and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Peel the onions and cut them in half. Slice thinly. Cut off any tough stems from the mushrooms and halve them if they are large.
• Film the bottom of your largest sauté pan with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Pat the livers dry with a paper towel and season generously with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add them to the pan and brown well on all sides. Transfer to a plate and drain the fat from the pan.
• Return the pan to the heat and add a couple tablespoons of olive oil. Add the mushrooms, garlic, and onions and sauté for a minute or two, until soft. Return the chicken livers to the pan and add the wine, swirling to combine. Allow the mixture to cook down until the vegetables are tender and the livers are heated through and glazed with the wine, 2 to 3 minutes. At the last minute, add the parsley and toss to combine.
• Puddle the polenta on 4 plates, making a depression in the center with the back of your spoon. Divide the chicken liver mixture among the plates, spooning it into the depression and drizzling with any juices.

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

• Dredge livers in flour, making sure to coat evenly.
• Cook livers in bacon fat until all sides are brown and crispy. You may have to do this in batches.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium sautépan. Add onions and cook over medium-low heat until soft and caramelized, 20 to 30 minutes. Stir occasionally and season with salt.
• Place another sauté pan over medium heat. Add bacon and sauté until browned on edges. Using a slotted spoon, remove to a plate. Pour off fat and place pan back on stove. Season chicken livers with salt and a generous amount of pepper. Add remaining tablespoon olive oil to pan and increase heat to medium high. Place chicken livers in pan and sauté on all sides, until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove livers.

• Stir in mushrooms (with liquid)
• Add bouillon/water, flour, salt(if using), pepper and parsley.
• Heat to boiling.
• Reduce heat and simmer uncovered
• Stir occasionally until livers are done, about 5 minutes.
• I usually use fresh sliced mushrooms as I don't really care for canned. Sorry, I'm not sure of the exact amount I use, I just add until it looks like enough -- oh, and I add about another 1/8 - 1/4 cup of water too if I use fresh mushrooms.
• I also add about 1/4 cup of diced onions and fry with liver for added flavour.
• I also do not add additional salt as I feel there is enough in the bouillon but the choice is yours.
