Stolen Garlic Chicken Livers

Recipe #110936 | 10 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Chef #194937
Feb 11, 2005

This is the ultimate Garlic Chicken Liver recipe. Simple, quick, minimal ingredients. Stolen from my local Italian restaurant after two weeks working there as a dish washer just to get the recipe. They've retired now so I don't think they'll mind me divulging their secret!

SERVES 1 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Wash, trim and dry the Chicken Livers.
  2. 2
    DRY fry them, NO OIL, in a frying pan, for three or four minutes until cooked through.
  3. 3
    Whilst still on the cooker add the oil, lemon juice and salt to taste.
  4. 4
    Stir once gently to mix.
  5. 5
    Serve immediately into a single portion dish and sprinkle liberally with chopped garlic, the more the better.
  6. 6
    The dry fry technique prevents the liver from browning and keeps it tender enough to melt in your mouth.
  7. 7
    Don't use Virgin Olive oil, the Greeks and Italians only use that for salads and dressings, very rarely for cooking.
  8. 8
    Bon Appetite!

I am very happy that you did your stint as a dishwasher -this is a wonderful recipe. Do not hold back on the garlic. I added pepper and used only a little salt. I liked frying the livers with no oil and then adding that bit of oil with the lemon juice. The raw garlic gives a great tang. I cut the recipe back to one serving

    These are really great! The dry fry method worked wonderfully for me except that I had to cook them significantly longer than is suggested in the recipe (more like 8 min). I was nervous about putting that much raw garlic on the top of these so I went kind of light. No need to! They were awesome and the garlic really made them perfect! I highly reccomend this preparation!!!
