Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken livers
- 60 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (for garnish)
- 2 pieces lemon wedges (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Trim any excess fat or sinew from the chicken livers and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels and set aside.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Lightly dredge each chicken liver in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil. Allow the butter to melt and the oil to heat until shimmering.
Step 5
Carefully place the chicken livers in the hot skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook in batches if necessary.
Step 6
Fry the livers for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
Step 7
Remove the cooked livers from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, citrusy flavor.
Step 9
Enjoy your pan fried chicken livers hot as an appetizer or paired with your favorite side dish!
