How to Make Balsamic Chicken Livers

  1. In a resealable plastic bag, combine 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  2. Add chicken livers (about 1 pound) to the bag a few at a time, shaking to coat evenly. Set aside.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Add coated livers to the hot skillet and cook for 2-5 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. Rare livers will be pink inside, while well-done livers will be cooked through.
  5. Remove livers from skillet and set aside.
  6. Reduce heat to medium. Add 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
  7. Stir in 2 tablespoons butter until melted and sauce slightly thickens.
  8. Return the chicken livers to the skillet, coating them in the balsamic sauce. Heat through for about 1 minute.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy! Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if desired.
