Mom made them because they are cheap, and now the convenience stores sell them in the South! You must have a fry screen -- these darn things pop and will burn you! Serve with pepper gravy or a packet of chicken gravy.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound chicken livers
1 egg
½ cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Place the chicken livers in a colander, and rinse with water. Drain the livers well. Whisk together the egg and milk in a shallow bowl until well blended. Place the flour, garlic powder, and salt and pepper in a resealable plastic zipper bag, and shake to combine.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place the chicken livers in the bowl of egg and milk mixture, and coat each liver. Place the livers, one at a time, into the plastic bag of flour mixture, and shake the bag to coat the each liver completely.
  • Gently place the coated livers, a few at a time, into the hot oil. Cover the pan of oil with a frying screen to avoid getting burned by spatters of oil that will pop out as the livers fry. Deep fry the livers until crisp and golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.

SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN LIVERS

Where I live, there is absolutely no place to go out and eat chicken livers, so I came up with this recipe. My son just loves it!

Provided by Micah Wheeler

Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 lb chicken livers
2 Tbsp kosher salt
2 Tbsp paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
slice flour for dredging
shortening for frying

Steps:

  • 1. Melt shortening in a 12-inch cast iron skillet or heavy fry pan over medium heat.
  • 2. Combine salt, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Liberally season livers with this mixture. Dredge livers in flour and shake off excess.
  • 3. Place livers into the pan and fry until cooked through, turning once.... dont overcook them, or they'll turn out chewy and bitter.
  • 4. Drain livers on a rack over a sheet pan lined with paper towels

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken livers for the best flavor and texture.
  • Soak the chicken livers in milk for 30 minutes to remove any bitterness.
  • Season the chicken livers with salt, pepper, and paprika before frying.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for frying the chicken livers.
  • Do not overcrowd the skillet when frying the chicken livers. Otherwise, they will steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the chicken livers over medium heat until they are cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Serve the chicken livers immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or green beans.

Conclusion:
