FRIED CHICKEN LIVERS RECIPES

Steps:

• Place chicken livers in a colander and rinse gently but well. Let drain for a few minutes.
• Remove from colander, cut and trim any connective tissue or fat if desired.
• Place livers in a small bowl.
• Add the buttermilk. Stir gently to coat the livers.
• Add salt.
• Add black pepper.
• Stir gently and set aside for 10-15 minutes.
• Place flour in a small bowl or tray.
• Remove the livers from the buttermilk, shaking each one gently to remove excess liquid.
• Place the livers in the flour, turning gently to fully coat the liver.
• One at a time, dip the livers back in the buttermilk, then place back into the flour.
• Toss gently to coat with flour again.
• Remove from flour, place on foil lined pan. Let rest for 10-15 minutes.
• Add oil to cast iron skillet to a depth of about one inch.
• Bring oil up to 350F degrees for frying.
• Gently lower livers, one at a time, into the hot oil.
• Use a splatter screen while frying if available as the livers will often pop and splatter while cooking.
• Fry liver until lightly browned on the bottom, then flip over, frying about 2-3 minutes per side.
• When done, remove from skillet and place on a brown paper bag or wire rack to drain.
• Sprinkle lightly with additional salt and black pepper if desired for added flavor.
• Serve warm if possible. They cool quickly.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Toss the green beans, garlic cloves and sage leaves with ¼ cup of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and arrange in an even layer on a sheet pan. Rub the chicken with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon salt. Arrange among the green beans and season with black pepper; scoot any green beans out from under the chicken. (It’s okay if the green beans are clumped together.) Roast, tossing the green beans occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, and the green beans are dark green and wrinkled, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to a platter. Stir the vinegar into the green beans and season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the green beans and garlic to the platter, scraping all the pan drippings and browned bits from the pan.
• Eat the chicken with the green beans, cloves of roasted garlic and a spoonful of the pan drippings. Optionally, if you'd like the chicken's skin to be more browned, return the chicken to the sheet pan and broil until golden.
