Chicken Livers With Bacon Recipes

CHICKEN LIVER WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Wash the chicken livers, get rid of the fat if it has and cut them to half. Pat dry with kitchen paper. Cut half the onions and slice them. Slice finely the bacons.
• Take a big frying pan, heat the oil and butter put the sliced bacons and fry until it is golden. Then you can add the sliced onions and stir fry for another few mins until gets tender.
• You can turn down the heat now and add the chopped tomato (for the juice), and the livers. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 5 mins. Careful the livers can splash if they are wet!
• Check and stir the livers. You can add the crushed black pepper, the wine and the majorams. Cook for another 4-5 minutes. Wait with the salt! It goes only at the end!
• (You can strenght the flavour of the majorams if you crumble them)
• You will see a kind of stew in you pan. Now you can turn up the heat again and stir the stuff and let it thicken a bit. Now it is time to check the livers. Stab them with a knife. If there's no blood coming out from the liver, it means they are ready. Do not overcook the livers, they become hard.
• If the liver is soft and ready, you can turn off the heat and add the rest of the majorams and season with the salt. Salt must be the last one for the liver!
• To serve, you can make boiled rice or serve with fresh white bread. If you have fresh parsley at home, you can chop a littre for dressing. I can assure your family will like it! You can try it with a little pickles too.
• Good apetite!

SMOKED CHICKEN LIVERS WRAPPED IN BACON RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the chicken livers in a colander and rinse under cold water. Pat the livers dry with paper towels.
• Slice the livers between the lobes for pieces that are mostly the same size. Trim off any white sinew or fat and any dark blood spots. Place the liver pieces in a large bowl and cover them with buttermilk. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for approximately 2 hours.
• Prepare the smoker: Partially fill the water bowl with half water and half apple cider or white wine. Fill the tray with wood chips. Remove a rack from the smoker. Place a foil sheet pan on the rack below the one that the livers will sit on to catch any drippings from the bacon. Preheat the smoker to 250°F with the top vent open.
• While the smoker is heating up, rinse the buttermilk off the chicken livers in cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the bacon slices into pieces that are large enough to wrap completely around each liver piece, approximately 3 inches. Place the wrapped livers, seam side down, on either the smoker rack or on a wire mesh cooling rack that is placed on top of the smoker rack. You can also place them on toothpicks or skewers to hold the bacon securely in place.
• Slide the rack into the smoker and close the door. Smoke for between 2 to 2.5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F when checked with a digital meat thermometer. The bacon should be browned and cooked through. Check the liquid and wood chips every 45 minutes and replenish as necessary.
• Serve while still warm with your other favorite smoked appetizers and some napkins.
