Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken livers
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 cup olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Rinse and pat dry the chicken livers with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour and parmesan cheese. Mix in garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper, then set aside.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs together with the heavy cream until well combined.
Step 4
Dip each chicken liver into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll it in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 5
In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small drop of the egg mixture sizzles upon contact.
Step 6
Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, carefully place the coated chicken livers into the hot oil.
Step 7
Fry each side for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Step 8
Remove the fried chicken livers from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain the excess oil.
Step 9
Serve immediately, optionally with a side of your choice such as a low-carb salad or steamed vegetables.
