Heavenly Chicken Livers With Caramelized Onions And Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Heat butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
• add onions and 1 tsp salt.
• Cook, stirring occasionally until onions are deep brown and caramelized.
• While onion is cooking, fry up bacon in a large skillet.
• Cook all the bacon and drain on a paper towel, leave drippings in the pan.
• Mix flour, 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp pepper.
• 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.
• Serve with bacon and onions.

Steps:

• Mix the raisins and vinegar together and set aside.
• Trim the livers of any membranes or connective tissue. Cut the pairs in half, making all the pieces as uniform as possible. Pat the livers dry on paper towels.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add onions and saute slowly, over low heat, until golden and tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer onions to a bowl, draining as much of the oil as possible into skillet.
• Increase the heat to high, add the livers and cook them very quickly, moving them around in the oil, for three to five minutes until they begin to brown but are still pink inside. Season with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle with sage and wine and the raisins and vinegar. Reduce heat to low, return onions to pan, mix them in to reheat. Serve liver and onions moistened with the pan juices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil setting.
• Cut each slice of bacon in half and wrap around each chicken liver, securing with toothpicks.
• Broil until bacon is cooked and crisp on one side, then turn and repeat (about 6 to 8 minutes each side). Serve with honey in a bowl, for dipping.

Steps:

• 1. Mix flour, garlic salt, black pepper. Dredge the chicken livers in the flour until well coated.
• 2. Heat 1 inch of oil in a skillet. Fry the coated chicken livers for 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate with paper towel on it to drain.
• 3. In another skillet use tablespoon of leftover bacon grease to fry the onions in at the same time the livers are cooking. Top the finished livers with the bacon strips and onion slices.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, sauté the scallions in butter until tender. Whisk in flour; whisk in milk all at once. Bring to a boil and cook and stir until the sauce is thickened and bubbly.
• Meanwhile, combine the cracker crumbs (breadcrumbs work too in a pinch) and cheese. Dip chicken breast halves in the crumb mixture to coat lightly; retain remaining crumb mixture. (Note: If freezing the meal for later, seal the remaining crumb mixture in a freezer bag).
• Arrange the breast halves in a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
• Stir the spinach and ham into the white sauce. Spoon the spinach mixture over the chicken. (Can freeze at this point for later; tape the crumb mixture bag to the side. Defrost before baking.).
• Bake, covered, at 350°F for 60 to 75 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with crumbs. Bake 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Heat Oil in pan. Sprinkle spices on both sides of each chicken breast. Add chicken breasts to hot oil and turn to medium high heat. Brown on both sides until golden (approx 4-5 minutes).
• Add 1 tablespoon bacon drippings, diced onion and brown sugar. Stir well then turn heat down to medium and cover. Cook for 20 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn chicken over and cook an additional 15-20 minutes or until chicken is completely done (when juices run clear).
• Move chicken to a baking dish and pour caramelized onions and brown sugar sauce over chicken. Drain excess grease. Cover and put off to the side. Using same pan you just cooked the chicken in fry diced bacon until crisp. Sprinkle over chicken. Top with cheese (1 slice per chicken breast) and place in oven. Bake until cheese is completely melted (approx 1-2 minute depending on how thick you get your cheese. I get mine sliced very thin). Remove from pan and place on plate making sure to place any fallen bacon pieces back on chicken before serving.

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.
