🧄 Ingredients

Well, we only need chicken livers as this is a simple recipe.

Apart from that, some cooking oil for frying, some garlic for the aroma and salt and pepper for seasoning. Could it be more simple?…

 

🍋 How To Make Fried Chicken Livers

1. Prep the livers

If you don’t like livers that much because you think they have a metallic taste, soak them in milk or cold water for about 1 hour before cooking to release the blood more effectively.

This is optional.

Rinse them well in lots of running water, let them dry in a colander or pat them dry with paper towels.

Cut out and green parts if existent, carefully. You can separate the lobs if you want, but I like to cook them whole.

2. Saute the garlic

Pour some vegetable cooking oil in a large pan on medium low heat. Peel the garlic cloves, slice half of them and saute until golden.

3. Add the livers

Add the chicken livers and let them fry slowly, covering the pan. After 6-7 minutes, turn them over to cook on all sides.

Cover again and let them cook trough. Chicken livers cook fast, so after 15-20 minutes they should be done.

Do nor over cook them because they will harden and lose their tastiness. They should remain moist to be enjoyed.

4. Season

3-4 minutes before turning off the heat, season with salt and black pepper.

Add the remaining sliced / crushed garlic cloves and let them cook together for a few minutes.

That’s it!

To variate, sometimes I now add a splash of white wine and let it reduce / evaporate to give them a more delicious flavor.

 

🍴 Serve With Your Favorites Side Dish

They are ready to be served with your favorite side dish – I like mashed potatoes, cooked rice or veggies.

Sometimes I like to drizzle some lemon juice over them to enhance their taste. Try it and see if you like it.

Also, they are insanely good next to any fresh salad or try my incredibly tasty roasted peppers salad you see in the photo below.

If you’re not counting your calories use a little more oil, lots of garlic and a splash of white wine towards the end.

You’ll have more delicious, full flavor sauce to drizzle over those livers.

Related FAQs

Are chicken livers good for you?

Yes, chicken livers are very nutritious. They’re a good source of proteins and packed with minerals like iron, cooper, A and B vitamins.

How do you know when chicken livers are done?

When the heat inside the liver reaches 165F, or they stop releasing water and the juice runs clear.

How do I make my liver taste good?

Some people don’t like eating liver because its slightly bitter taste. Soak the liver in milk for 1 hour before cooking.

That will take away some of the bitterness and metallic taste that comes from iron.

Use different herbs and flavors like lemon, garlic, onion or white wine to enhance their taste. Yum!

Should chicken livers be rinsed before frying?

Yes, they should be prepared correctly before cooking. Soak them in milk or in cold water for 1 hour (optional).

Rinse them in running water, let them drain or pat them dry and remove any connective tissues and green parts.
