CHICKEN LIVERS W/CARAMELIZED ONION AND MADEIRA
Rich tasting caramelized onions combined with Madeira makes a spectacular sauce for chicken livers. Serve with rice or over toast so you don't miss a single drop. Update: 06/22/09 - if the sauce is running low add some chicken broth or beef broth to extend it! ;)

Steps:
- In a frying pan, heat 2 Tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat.
- Add the onions, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper and sugar.

- In the same frying pan, heat the remaining 1 Tablespoon of oil over moderately high heat.
- Season the chicken livers with the remaining salt & pepper.
- Put the livers in the pan, in two batches if necessary, and cook for 2 minutes. Turn and cook until browned, about 2 minutes longer.
- The livers should still be pink inside.
- Remove the chicken livers from the pan and put them on top of the onions.
- Return the pan to the heat and add Madeira.
- Boil rapidly, scraping the bottom of the pan to dislodge any brown bits, for 1 minute.

Steps:
- Put onions in a large skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring infrequently, until onions are dry and almost sticking to pan, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in a tablespoon of oil or butter and a large pinch of salt and a few grindings of black pepper, add rosemary and turn heat down to medium-low. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their liquid and it evaporates, about 15 minutes more. Remove vegetables from pan; set aside.
- Wipe pan with a paper towel, put it over medium-high heat and add remaining oil or butter. When oil is hot or foam from butter has subsided, add chicken livers. Keep heat high and cook livers quickly, turning them until brown and crisp on both sides but still pink on inside, about 3 or 4 minutes total. Remove from pan.
- Return vegetables to pan along with vinegar and 2 or 3 tablespoons water, just enough to deglaze; stir well to combine and serve with livers and crusty bread, or on toast.

HEAVENLY CHICKEN LIVERS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND BACON
Traditionally this dish is made with calves livers but these are quite hard to get in New Zealand. I love this dish because its super easy and super cheap! It goes particularly well with a side dish of mash potatoes or parsnips!

Steps:
- Dice up onions and bacon and start them simmering in butter and garlic in a small pan. Leave this on a low heat until the onions become translucent and start becoming sweet.
- While all that is on the stove, chop up your livers and prepare a flour batter seasoned with salt and pepper. Get a thick bottom pan and let it get very hot. Flour up your meat and drop it in in batches. Keep it turning so it browns on all sides but only keep it in for around 1-2min. The inside of the meat should still be lovely and soft when you bite into it. You do NOT want to overcook livers, they have a beautiful flavor on their own.
- Serve with a side of mash potatoes and parsnips and you've got a lovely meal!
