How to Make Sauteed Chicken Livers
- Clean and trim 1 pound of chicken livers, removing any tough membranes or visible veins.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of paprika.
- Dredge the chicken livers in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken livers to the hot skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan; work in batches if necessary.
- Remove the cooked chicken livers from the skillet and set aside.
- Add 1/4 cup of dry white wine (optional) to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- Return the chicken livers to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the sauce.
- Serve immediately over mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
