Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large NONSTICK pan over medium high heat until very hot. Toss chicken with 1 tablespoon pesto and add to pan along with onions, carrots and zucchini. Sauté for three minutes then add red bell pepper, orzo and garlic and cook an additional 2 minutes.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, 2 tablespoons pesto, chicken broth, chicken bouillon and seasonings. Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for 8-12 minutes, or until vegetables and orzo are tender, stirring every 5 minutes so the orzo doesn't burn, covering pot after each stir.
- Stir in Parmesan cheese. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if desired. Garnish with fresh Parmesan and parsley (optional).

Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions.
- Drain and set aside.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil.
- Add onion and garlic and cook until soft.
- Add chicken livers in a single layer and saute until firm, about 10 minutes, turning once.
- Add wine and seasonings.
- Cover and simmer on LOW heat about 5-10 minutes, or until livers are no longer pink inside.
- Uncover and continue to simmer until wine is reduced by half.
- Toss with pasta, warm through, and serve immediately with parmesan cheese if desired.
- (NOTE) This recipe just evolved, and I usually do not measure, so proportions are approximate.
- Add more or less wine if desired, and if it seems like too much pasta, then don't add it all.
- I'd taste it first before you add the cheese.
- You might like it without.

Steps:
- Mix the raisins and vinegar together and set aside.
- Trim the livers of any membranes or connective tissue. Cut the pairs in half, making all the pieces as uniform as possible. Pat the livers dry on paper towels.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add onions and saute slowly, over low heat, until golden and tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer onions to a bowl, draining as much of the oil as possible into skillet.
- Increase the heat to high, add the livers and cook them very quickly, moving them around in the oil, for three to five minutes until they begin to brown but are still pink inside. Season with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle with sage and wine and the raisins and vinegar. Reduce heat to low, return onions to pan, mix them in to reheat. Serve liver and onions moistened with the pan juices.

Steps:
- Take the chicken livers you are preparing and dredge them in sifted salt, pepper, and flour. Shake off excess. Slice yellow onion in rings and add livers and onion slices to cast iron skillet. Fry until nicely browned and crisp. Then add Worcestershire sauce.
- This was the "secret" ingredient that set them apart from ordinary fried chicken livers. Fry them in olive oil, and be sure the oil and skillet are VERY hot before adding the livers and onions.
