Ingredients

Sauté
 50 g Butter
 500 g Chicken liver
 Salt & Pepper
...add
 2 Red onion(medium sized)
 3 Garlic cloves(large)
...deglaze
 250 ml Double cream
...optional
 1 Chili pepper (sliced)
 Parsley to garnish

Directions

Preparation
1

  • Clean your liver, remove all sinew and slice them in to cubes.
  • Slice onions in to strings, slice chili, clean garlic.

Cooking
2

My choice of pan here is stainless steel to develop nice browning.

  • Start with high heat, melt your butter once it’s an almost sizzling place in your chicken liver.
  • Livers will stick to the pan immediately so make sure to distribute evenly.
  • After one or two minutes, lower the heat to low.
  • Liver will now start to release juices and unstick themself from the pan.
  • Now introduce onions, garlic and chili.
  • Add more butter if you are low with it and dish looks dry.
  • Introduce double cream, again this should unstick the liver.
  • Mix well and bring it to simmer, you can close the lid to get it simmering quicker.
  • Cook until your desired sauce thickness.
  • Garnish with parsley or chili, serve with rice or fresh bread.
