Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh chicken livers, rinsed and patted dry
1 teaspoon coarse salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, plus more for seasoning
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more if needed
3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more if needed
2 shallots, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
1/2 cup Marsala wine
1/2 cup homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock

Steps:

  • Remove strings or sinew from livers. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Dredge lightly in flour; shake off excess.
  • Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Saute livers in two batches (using more butter and oil if necessary with the second batch) until nicely browned and still pink in the center, about 2 minutes on each side.
  • Remove livers from saute pan; place on a plate, covered with foil, to keep warm. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon fat; discard. If there is not enough fat in pan, add more olive oil. Add shallots and herbs; saute until shallots are soft and slightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add Marsala; simmer until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add stock; simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove pan from heat, and swirl in remaining butter. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over livers before serving.

1/4 c flour
1/2 lb chicken livers
1/2 c marsala wine
1/2 c chicken broth
8 oz wide egg noodles

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the middle of cooking.
  • Choose high-quality chicken livers: The quality of your chicken livers will greatly affect the final dish. Look for livers that are plump, smooth, and free of any blemishes.
  • Soak the chicken livers in milk: Soaking the chicken livers in milk helps to remove any impurities and mellows out the flavor.
  • Dredge the chicken livers in flour: Dredging the chicken livers in flour helps to create a crispy coating that will help to keep the livers moist and juicy.
  • Cook the chicken livers over medium heat: Cooking the chicken livers over medium heat helps to prevent them from becoming tough and overcooked.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken livers are cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken livers should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove them from the heat.
  • Serve the chicken livers with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and a green salad are all great options.
