I enjoy doing a family brunch every now and then, especially on Easter and this is a requested item repeatedly. Even the kids like them, until they find out they have liver in them. :)

Number Of Ingredients 5

vegetable oil
1 lb applewood bacon
2 lb chicken livers, rinsed, patted dry and halfed
1 c flour
3 Tbsp essence, recipe to follow

Steps:

  • 1. Heat 1" vegetable oil in large skillet to a medium/medium high heat. Mix flour and essence together in a pie plate. Skewer bacon and liver pieces alternately, entwining the bacon with the liver (So if you're looking at the side of the skewer, the bacon is in an "S" shape with liver in the curves. I hope this makes sense) Then dredge the skewer in flour mixture...Place skewer in hot oil 3-4 minutes on each side, let drain on paper towel, sprinkle with salt and serve.
  • 2. Essence ... this is Emeril Lagasse's "Emeril's Essence" recipe, a seasoning you can use for so many things...really good on a pork tenderloin! 2 Tablespoons Garlic Powder 1 Tablespoon Onion Powder 2 Tablespoons salt 2 Tablespoons paprika 1 Tablespoon pepper 1 Tablespoon oregano 1 Tablespoon thyme Mix together and store in air tight container/ shaker bottle.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 lb chicken livers
1/2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
5 drops onion juice
6 slice bacon
1 Tbsp finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Clean the chicken livers thoroughly in cold water. Pat dry with paper towels. Lay the livers on wax paper. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and onion juice. Cut the bacon slices in half. Wrap each piece around a chicken liver. Fasten with a 4-inch skewer and place in a shallow pan lined with aluminum foil. Broil for about 7 minutes or until the bacon is thoroughly cooked.

Tips:

  • Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Crispy Bacon: Cook the bacon until it's crispy and slightly browned for the best flavor and texture.

  • Seasoning: Be generous with the seasoning, especially the garlic and onion powder, to give the dish a bold and flavorful taste.
  • Cooking Temperature: Cook the chicken livers over medium heat to prevent them from becoming tough or overcooked.
