Chicken Livers with Onions
This is one of my favourite things to eat, something I make for my husband and myself on a lazy Sunday.
This can be breakfast, lunch or dinner in our house.

Recipe
Serves 3-4
2-3 tablespoons Sunflower oil
500g chicken livers
2 large brown onions, peeled
1/3 cup white wine
1 shallot, sliced to decorate, optional
2-3 tablespoons Sunflower oil
500g chicken livers
2 large brown onions, peeled
1/3 cup white wine
1 shallot, sliced to decorate, optional
Wash the livers, get rid of the fat if it has and cut them into smaller bite size pieces, not too small though.
Cut the onions in half and slice them.
Take a large frying pan, over medium heat add the oil to the pan and the onions and fry until softened and just golden, takes about 6-8 minutes.
Add the livers, stir it around. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring once during this time. Check the livers, stir, now add the wine. Cook for a further 2 minutes, covered, then remove the lid increase the heat a little and cook another 2 minutes uncovered to allow the wine to reduce and thicken into a sauce, and the livers are cooked through, but not overcooked. I would rather have a runny sauce than overcooked livers.
Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Sprinkle with shallots, if using.
