Chicken livers with onion and sage

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 tablespoons Butter
1 cup Finely sliced onions
2 Whole cloves
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 pounds Chicken livers
¾ cup Flour
4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
2 teaspoons Ground sage -or-
2 tablespoons Finely chopped fresh sage
2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons Finely chopped parsley

Directions

Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a non-stick skillet, and add the onion, cloves, salt and pepper. Toss and stir over medium heat for about 10 minutes. The onions should be browned and soft. Discard the cloves; keep the onions warm.

Pick over the chicken livers and remove any tough veins. Quarter the livers. Put the livers in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add the flour and stir to coat well. Remove the livers to a baking sheet, separating them.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large non-stick skillet over high heat.

Add half the livers one at a time. Cook, turning the livers as they brown.

One batch of livers takes about 4-5 minutes to cook. Drain the livers. Wipe out the skillet, and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Cook the remaining livers the same way, then drain.

Using the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over high heat. Add the livers, cooked onions, sage, salt and pepper. Cook, shaking the skillet and tossing the livers so they will heat throughout.

Add the vinegar, stir and blend well for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
