Higaditos en chipotle

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ pounds (about 1 large) tomatoes, broiled
2 Garlic cloves, peeled and roughly chopped
2 Canned chipotles en escabeche or en vinagre
¾ pounds Chicken livers
3 tablespoons Melted chicken fat or safflower oil
½ medium Onion, thinly sliced
Sea salt to taste

Directions

Chicken Livers in Chipotle Sauce Serves 4 Put the unpeeled tomatoes, garlic, and chilies into a blender jar and blend until almost smooth; there should be a little texture to the sauce. Set aside.

Trim the livers of any connective tissue and any greenish spots from the bile duct; cut each one into six parts. Heat the fat in a frying pan, add the liver pieces and onion, sprinkle lightly with salt, and fry, tossing them almost constantly - a stir-fry if you will- for about 3 minutes over high heat. Add the blended ingredients and, still over high heat, cook for about 5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced and seasoned. Adjust seasoning.
