I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken livers turned out rubbery and the sauce was watery.

This recipe is just okay. The chicken livers were a bit dry and the sauce was a bit bland.

I've tried this recipe several times and it's always a failure. The chicken livers are always undercooked and the sauce is too thin.

This recipe is a disaster. The chicken livers were burnt and the sauce was curdled.

I'm not a fan of chicken livers, but I thought I would give this recipe a try. I was wrong. The livers were mushy and the sauce was too sweet.

This recipe is a waste of time and money. The chicken livers were tough and the sauce was flavorless.
