CREAMY CHICKEN LIVERS WITH TAGLIATELLE



Creamy Chicken Livers With Tagliatelle image

A yummy warm treat which is guaranteed to fill you up, served with salad if you wish. Easy and simple to make, a very good end to a weekday. I think people should eat more chicken livers- their "strong" flavour is turned into a creamy meaty taste which you can't get enough of in this dish. One of the reasons I joined this site was to share this dish. Photo will be uploaded when made again (very soon I'd imagine!)

Time 40m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 courgette, sliced
1 teaspoon dried herbs
salt
pepper
350 g chicken livers
0.5 (8 ounce) can dry white wine (8oz)
3 tablespoons double cream
500 g tagliatelle pasta noodles (fresh tends to be better)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and saute the onions.
  • Next, add in the raw chicken livers and leave to cook for about 5-10 minutes until they are nicely browned.
  • Add in a couple of twists of pepper and salt, herbs and the courgette. Pour in the white wine and next the double cream to give it it's sauce. Leave for about 20 minutes simmering, as you want the sauce to reduce a bit to make it more flavourful.
  • Place the tagliatelle in boiling water usually taking 3-5 minutes to cook. (I sometimes add olive oil in the pasta after it's been cooked just to give it some extra flavour.
  • You could add in all kinds of vegetables in this dish, so it means you don't necessarily need a side dish of veggies).

CREAMY CHICKEN LIVER PASTA WITH WILD MORELS



Creamy Chicken Liver Pasta With Wild Morels image

Fresh wild mushrooms are the most delicious indulgence, whether it's gray-brown morels in the springtime, golden chanterelles in the summer, or russet-colored porcini in the fall. True, they are expensive (unless you know how to pick your own), but a mere half-pound is all you need for this creamy pasta - and chicken livers are cheap. Serve the pasta in small portions; it is undeniably a bit on the rich side. If you can't find wild mushrooms, use an assortment of cultivated mushrooms, like cremini, oyster mushrooms, King trumpets or shiitake. To give them more wild mushroom flavor, soak just a few a few dried morels or porcini in warm water. When softened, chop them very fine and stir into the sauce.

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 pound wild morels (or other mushrooms)
1 pound chicken livers
All-purpose flour, for dusting
Salt and pepper
Pinch of cayenne
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
2 large shallots, finely diced
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 to 3 cups chicken stock (or mushroom stock)
1/2 cup crème fraîche
1 pound pappardelle or other pasta
4 egg yolks
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon finely cut chives
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 1/2-inch ribbons (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut stems from mushrooms (reserve for making mushroom stock, if desired) and cut them to bottom into halves or quarters. If they seem at all sandy, swish them very briefly in a bowl of warm water and blot on kitchen towels, then set aside. Put a large pot of water on to boil for the pasta.
  • Trim chicken livers: cut each liver into two lobes, discarding any veiny bits, then cut livers into 1-inch pieces. Put about 1 cup flour in a low bowl and add 1 teaspoon salt, a generous amount of black pepper and a pinch of cayenne. Dip liver chunks in flour mixture, then set them aside in one layer on a baking sheet.
  • Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium high heat. Quickly brown liver pieces on all sides, then remove them from the pan and blot on paper towels.
  • Add butter and shallots to pan and cook, stirring frequently, until shallots are softened and beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, season generously with salt and pepper and cook them together with the shallots for about 5 minutes, until they are somewhat soft.
  • Add sherry and cook for a minute or so, then add 2 cups chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and add previously browned liver. Cook for about 5 minutes. It should look quite saucy. Add more chicken stock, if necessary. Taste and adjust seasoning. Stir in crème fraîche and turn off heat
  • Boil pasta until al dente and drain. While pasta is cooking, beat egg yolks, lemon juice and lemon zest together in a small bowl. Pour egg mixture slowly into chicken liver sauce, then stir for a minute or so over low heat until slightly thickened, being careful not to curdle egg.
  • Divide pasta among bowls and spoon sauce over. Mix tarragon, parsley and chives together and sprinkle over each serving. Scatter prosciutto ribbons on top, if using, and serve immediately.
