Pasta With Chicken Liver Sauce image

Here is a recipe from an old Gourmet article which celebrated the goodness of sage. I would add a couple of tablespoons of tomato paste with the wine. Can use tagliatelle, instead of spaghetti. An elegant dish for liver lovers.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 carrot, chopped fine
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 lb chicken liver, trimmed, rinsed, and chopped fine
2 ounces lean ham, sliced and cut into strips
1/2 cup dry white wine
3/4 lb spaghetti or 3/4 lb spaghettini
2 tablespoons fresh sage leaves, minced
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • In a heavy skillet cook the onion, carrot, and garlic in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
  • Add the chicken livers and the ham. Cook over moderate heat stirring frequently for 4 minutes. Stir in the wine and boil the mixture until the liquid is reduced by half.
  • In a pot of boiling salted water cook the spaghetti until it is "al dente", add 1/2 cup of the pasta water to the liver sauce, drain the spaghetti, and return it to the pot.
  • Add the sage and salt and pepper to taste to the sauce and boil the sauce for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly. Stir in the tablespoon of butter.
  • Toss the spaghetti in the pot with the sauce and parmesan cheese.
  • Buon appetito!
