What we love about chicken liver is that it can be prepared in just a few minutes. Here are some simple and effective ideas:
Quick pan-fried
The fastest! Brown the livers in a little butter or olive oil with garlic, onion, and a pinch of thyme. Simmer for a few minutes and they’re ready to eat.
In a warm salad
Place them while still warm on a bed of lamb’s lettuce or arugula, with a mustard and walnut oil vinaigrette. Add a few walnut kernels, figs, or apple wedges for an irresistible sweet and savory touch.
In homemade pâté
Blend pan-fried livers with a little cream, butter, and fresh herbs. Serve on toast for a chic and flavorful appetizer.
In a creamy sauce
Deglaze with a splash of white wine or port, add a little cream, and serve with pasta or rice. Easy and refined.
Grilled for added character
Brush them with oil, add your favorite spices, then grill or bake them. Serve with roasted seasonal vegetables.
Small precautions to keep in mind
Even though it is full of qualities, chicken liver deserves to be consumed in moderation:
-
Be careful with vitamin A : A moderate portion is sufficient, especially during pregnancy. There’s no need to consume it too often.
-
Always well cooked : Like any raw product of animal origin, it must be cooked thoroughly to avoid any health risks.
Cooked with care, chicken liver becomes both a healthy and delicious ally.
